Anything in the logs ? E.g. hobbitd.log or bb-display.log ought to have
some entries if things aren't going the way they should.


Is the main Hobbit webpage being updated ? Check the timestamp in the
upper righthand corner.


In hobbitlaunch.cfg you'll find a section like this:

    [bbdisplay]
        ENVFILE /usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
	CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report
	LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-display.log

Try running 

   bbcmd --env=/usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
   echo $MACHINE
   echo $BBDISP

(i.e. use the ENVFILE filename for the --env option). Does the 
MACHINE setting match your servers' hostname in bb-hosts?  
(It will show commas instead of dots, but that is OK).
And BBDISP is correct ?

I was thinking they were all related.  Should there be a ps running that
isn't that I can check for?  Or would the ps only start upon hobbitd telling
it to do its job?

hobbitserver.cfg:
BBSERVERIP="74.x.x.x" #my public that is definitely correct, it's eth0
BBDISP="$BBSERVERIP" #you are correct about this

It went purple when it was booted: Sun Jan 27 05:27:52 2008

Really curious why this started happening when it was rebooted =/

I rebooted the hobbit server for power related reasons and since it came
up
the following tests are purple on the Hobbit server:

bbgen/bbtest/cpu/disk/files/hobbitd/memory/msgs/ports/procs
It's all of the tests that it sends to itself. Check the BBDISP setting
in hobbitserver.cfg (which is usually picked up from BBSERVERIP), it
must be an IP assigned to your Hobbit server.
