Clarification: Change graphing on Trends link

Being the newb that I am, I think I just realized what I might have done
wrong.  I created a hobbit account and ran the installation configure and
make as hobbit, make install under su.  But I have been logging in as root
on the system so that I could edit the config files and scripts.  Maybe that
is why the make failed?  I was working from the same tree.

Hmmm.  All I can think of is that I made the changes in the original tree that I installed hobbit from, just a few weeks ago.  I'd already done all the configuration steps and installed a working hobbit server from that tree, then went back and made the graph changes, then re-ran make.

Were you working from a just-unpacked hobbit tree??  That might account for your problem.  Other than that, I don't know why it would be different.  I'm working from 4.1.2p1 too.
