'conn' history pages all showing red

So I just noticed that if I click on the 'conn' monitor, and then the HISTORY button, all my hosts are showing red on that histogram.  Yet everything is fine otherwise.  They aren't actually alerting, just the history page.

Is anyone else seeing this?

I think you need to show us the image you're seeing. 

The histograms consist of the time-markers (showing the hours, or
days, or months) and the color-bar. The time-markers can very well be
red without there being a red stripe in the color-bar; that is just an
indication that there was an outage e.g. in August, but it was too
short to show up as a stripe on the color-bar. (That's what the
"Min. duration shown" tells you).

If the history is not updated correctly - i.e. the "Last 50 log
entries" is not up-to-date - then I would check permissions on the
files in the ~/data/hist/ directory and make sure hobbit has
write-access to them.

The color bars on all my hosts are showing red since February 15th.  And the history list shows all my hosts going red since that date.  I wonder if that was the day I installed a new release.  But it's weird that only the ping check shows this behaviour.  

I'll get a screenshot if that's not clear enough.

Please do. And if you could send me one of those history files
(~hobbit/data/hist/HOSTNAME.conn) that would probably also help.

I take it that the current status shows up as green for those hosts ?
Did you check the ownership and permissions on the files in
~hobbit/data/hist/ ?

Hi All,
 
I found this but no solution. I think I have the same problem. 
Current status are green for "telnet" and "procs" but when I look at History they are red since 2005-03-03 and 2005-03-04.
All files in data/hist are at least 666
