I don't have any .html files in ~/server/www directory.

Here's the 'ls -al' of the directory:

Are you doing \hobbit\bb.html ?
 
That is what mine is.
 
Try that and see if it works for you.
 
Thanks,

Installation Issue


If the processes are running and you're not filling that directory with 
index/bb/bb2.html files then you probably have the output directory set to 
another directory then where that Alias (or Vhost) is pointing.
 
As was mentioned you do have to wait a good minute or two before that 
directory is populated.  In my experience I never have that wait as I wait 
between every step to accomplish something else.

It  can take a minute or two for the page generator to produce that first  page.  Are you still getting that directory listing??

Is xymon running?  Look for ps named "hobbit"

ps  aux|grep hobb

Hello everyone,

For the first time, I am trying to install  Hobbit on my Ubuntu Linux Server. I followed the installation instructions  provided on http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/

Every step went  fine but when I started hobbit and typed in the hobbit address [ http://server-ip/hobbit/ ] in the browser, instead of  getting the main page, I get the directory structure (see below)? What am  I missing here?
Please assist. Thank you!
