In my hobbitd.log file every few minutes I get the message:

Cannot open checkpoint file /opt/hobbitd/4.2.0/server/tmp/hobbitd.chk.1171722034 : No space left on device

The web page 'bb2.html' is not updating at all. Any gueses what's going on? My filesystems
have plenty of space.

Fedora Core 5
Hobbit 4.2.0

No space left on device means "No space left on device"   ==>  Your disk
is full; what else.

Hi Mike

If you are sure that there is plenty of space on disk, check that the
hobbit user has write access to the directory /opt/hobbitd/4.2.0/server/tmp/
As the hobbit user try to put a file into the directory:   echo "test" >
/opt/hobbitd/4.2.0/server/tmp/create_file_test.tmp

Next check that there are not "to many files" in that folder.   ls -l
/opt/hobbitd/4.2.0/server/tmp | wc -l

I had not tried to put a file in the directory, there is plenty of space.
When I try to touch a file in that directory (new file) I get the same
error. What's going on here?

By the error that is an obvious answer, however:

Have you checked the number of free inodes on the filesystem ?
