Hi Ben,

Try adding apache user to the hobbit group and see if it works, if not
change the  user and group in the apache.conf file to user: hobbit
group: hobbit just to test, it seems to be access rights 

Regards,

Sello

Subject: [hobbit] Install problems

I was recently introduced to Hobbit when searching for a replacement
for BB.

I have installed hobbit on an Ubuntu 7.04 server with almost no
trouble
except for the fact that I don¹t have a website generating. Hobbit
starts
with no errors and I see all of the processes running with a ps
command. I
wait for about 5 minutes and bring up a web browser and I don't get a
page.
At first I suspected I had made a mistake adding the alias's into the
apache2.conf but everything there seems to be in order. What is more
troubling to me is that when I check the www directory in my hobbit
installation it is empty.

hobbit at RESMACMGMT01:~/server/www$ ls -al
total 40
drwxr-xr-x 10 hobbit hobbit   4096 2007-05-25 13:55 .
drwxr-xr-x  9 hobbit hobbit   4096 2007-05-25 13:55 ..
drwxr-xr-x  2 hobbit hobbit   4096 2007-05-25 13:55 gifs

drwxr-xr-x  2 hobbit hobbit   4096 2007-05-25 13:55 menu
drwxr-xr-x  2 hobbit hobbit   4096 2007-05-25 13:55 notes
drwxrwxr-x  2 hobbit www-data 4096 2007-05-25 13:55 rep

drwxr-xr-x  2 hobbit hobbit   4096 2007-05-25 13:55 wml

So it looks to me that Hobbit simply isn't generating a web page at
all. I
am brand new to hobbit so I really don't know what else to check.
