I got a call from my boss stating that the hobbit page is just coming up as
a blank white page.  When I cd to /opt/hobbit/server/www and do an "ls -l" I
see that the bb.html, bb2.hmlt and bbnk.html are 0 kb in size.  I have tried
restarting the process and nothing has worked.  Can someone assist ASAP?

Was it working just fine and then the pages became blank?

Obviously something changed - something must have happened.  Is the
disk full?  Have you tried rebooting the server?

And even if the disk is not full, check to see if you've run out of inodes:

df -i

that happens to me every so often and I have to do the same thing as if 
the disk filled up, run through the trimhistory process.

Eventually, I should recreate that filesystem with more inodes, but this 
doesn't happen that often (luckily).

Went through same thing during early years using BigBrother,
finally decided to start monitoring disk space on the server itself,
and have it send me critical disk usage messages before boss(es) called me.

Do you use a SNPP server for sending SMS messages to folks
who need to get that 3 am emergency message before anyone knows about it?

Which one seems to work with hobbit better?

Anyways, thanks everyone for being here, and all the great help and knowledge you provide.

English is not my first language either, so it helps when people are more understanding
during a technical crisis/query.

But enough! I digress..... :-)

Have a good sunday!

We have the same problem with running out of inodes, but everytime I try
to run the trimhistory command I get that "Whoops!" message:

/bb4/bb/server/bin/trimhistory --drop --dropsvcs --droplogs

2008-06-16 11:13:07 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - timeout
2008-06-16 11:13:07 Cannot get list of host/test combinations

I don't know that it would make much difference, but I've always specified the date as indicated on the man page.
