Hi DNS,

It should all work. you need to browse to http://localhost/hobbit/ after an
install is complete. You MUST include the training slash...

Can you confirm that you started hobbit correctly? Are there hobbit
processes running so that the bb.html page has been generated?

What is in your apache logs?

And what about the hobbit log directory, is there anything being logged
there to confirm that data is being collected and processed?

Cheers

Phil

Many thanks...
