Newbie question - starting hobbit
list Kimberly McKinnis
It's been a while since I've even installed the BB server, so I'm a little rusty. I followed the directions, ran ./configure, make install, configured Apache, put stuff in bb-hosts, and was ready to start it. I ran ./server/starthobbit.sh and nothing happened. No feedback, no hobbit processes... What did I miss? P.S. While I am running a BB server, this is on an entirely separate Gentoo machine. If I can get it to work, eventually I will make it a BBRELAY, so the BB clients can report to it. But first, I must make the standalone server work. ~Kim

Should be ./server/starthobbit.sh start If you run it without an argument nothing happens.

Right :) wow, brain lapse. Thanks. I started it, the main page populated, then I did ./starthobbit.sh restart and everything is blank again. Is this normal behavior?

It shouldn't be - restarting should just pick up where the old one left off. But: I know there is a race condition when shutting down Hobbit, so restarting could fail in beta-5; "stop", wait a few seconds, "start" does work. Henrik

*sigh* I have angered the Hobbit diety and even stopping it and starting will not populate the page any longer. It says "Current Status" and there is no list of machines. Bb-hosts looks fine though. Not sure what else it could be.

Ok heres the specifics. I would think I did something completely wrong except that it worked for about 5 minutes. Apache is definitely running, as the page loads, but displays no machines. I didn't change anything, but I restarted it, and it's not listening on 1984 anymore it seems. netstat -anp | grep LISTEN doesn't show it. hobbit at shinkansen server $ ps -ef | grep hobbit hobbit 27148 1 0 17:01 ? 00:00:00 /usr/local/hobbit-4.0-beta5/server/bin/hobbitlaunch --config=/usr/local/hobbit-4.0-beta5/server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg --env=/usr/local/hobbit-4.0-beta5/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg --log=/var/log/hobbit/hobbitlaunch.log --pidfile=/var/log/hobbit/hobbitlaunch.pid hobbit 27149 27148 99 17:01 ? 00:04:43 hobbitd --restart=/usr/local/hobbit-4.0-beta5/server/tmp/hobbitd.chk --checkpoint-file=/usr/local/hobbit-4.0-beta5/server/tmp/hobbitd.chk --checkpoint-interval=600 --purple-conn=conn --log=/var/log/hobbit/hobbitd.log --admin-senders=127.0.0.1 209.11.142.54 Hobbitd.log is 0 bytes.

Do you have the latest patch installed? This was the behavior that mine exhibited before I recompiled w/ the patch.
