Adding a New Column to my hobbit server

Try running your script by hand. Run it under the control of bbcmd (usually
in the hobbit client bin directory). On unix it would be something like:
su hobbit -c "<path-to-hobbit-client-bin>/bbcmd <your script>"

If there is a problem you should see errors there. Also check the logs on
the client.

However, even after doing the above steps i do not get the new column.

1. Is there a way i can debug to find what went wrong?
2. Is there a way to know if the client is able to send the data to the
hobbit server?
3. If the client is able to send the data to the hobbit server, why is it
not displaying the new column.

My client side script is running every 5 mins from $BBHOME/ext.

Please assist and let me know if there is any more information required.

Regards,
Sanu
