First check that no hobbitd and hobbitd_channel processes are running.
You can also run the "ipcs" command and see if there are any shared-
memory segments owned by the hobbit user - there should not be any
when Hobbit is not running.

If that doesn't give anything, add "--debug" to the hobbitd
commandline in ~/server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg, and let's see what that
tells us.
