debian client install errors
I'm not sure if Henrik wants bug reports here, or privately.
When installing the hobbit client under debian, it complains: Please configure HOBBITSERVERS in /etc/default/hobbit-client invoke-rc.d: initscript hobbit-client, action "start" failed
/etc/default/hobbit-client says that HOBBITSERVERS is a predefined variable. It doesn't seem to be though.
I'm not sure if the right action is to edit /etc/default/hobbit-client, or edit somewhere else. I can make this work, but I'm more concerned with making sure this gets fixed in the release. The same problem was present in the last beta.
Hi,
OS: Freebsd 6.1 Hobbit server: 4.2.0
i ve problem when installing the hobbit server/client on a freebsd.
In fact, it seems the client doesnt manage to communicate with the
server side. (on the same host :-(
In log,

Before updating, this box was an hobbit server 4.1 and bigbrother
client. (the bigbrother client is down now)
Any help is welcome.
Thanks ! nicolas Lienard
Maybe the fact to install hobbit 4.2 into an old install was not a
good idea.
I reinstalled hobbit and finaly everything works now (i moved server
to server.old and client to client.old before; just keeping data
directory)

Oh please - keep bug reports on the mailing list! I have nothing to hide (at least, not when it comes to Hobbit :-))
Seriously, the Hobbit mailing list does go to my personal mailbox. And it's automatically tagged with "[hobbit]" making it easy to spot. So please keep it on the list.
(Of couse, if a bug report involves some information about hosts, IP-adresses etc that you would prefer to keep private, sending it directly to me is OK. But usually this kind of data only shows up after an initial report to the list).
When installing the hobbit client under debian, it complains: Please configure HOBBITSERVERS in /etc/default/hobbit-client invoke-rc.d: initscript hobbit-client, action "start" failed
/etc/default/hobbit-client says that HOBBITSERVERS is a predefined variable. It doesn't seem to be though.
Hmm ... it was supposed to set that up during the dpkg "setup" phase. I must admit it's been a long time since I've looked at the debian client-package install, so I may have broken something along the way of the 4.2 release.
I'll check up on it.

Adding the two lines for server and client to the /etc/default/hobbit-client makes it work. There seems to be a disconnect between the installer and the file. I'll see if I can figure it out.

Another bug in the Debian package, in /etc/init.d/hobbit-client : it
misses $DMNOPTS on stop and restart, so it fails when hostname is
different than --hostname.
We changed some other things so the package build from 2.2 to 3.1.
One question I have is how will the debian package and the clientupdate play together...
