Re: [hobbit] msgs clear

Morning people,

Hopefully, this has not bee discussed on the list before, but here goes anyway...

I have replaced my BB server with a hobbit server. Very nice drop in replacement :) I am still getting my head round the differences, but most issues I have had have been solved. Apart from..

My server is called bb02.colt, running on linux. I have added this entry into the ~/server/etc/client-local.cfg

[linux]
log:/var/log/messages:10240

ignore identification
ignore modprobe

trigger sudo

and this entry into the ~/server/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg

        LOG /var/log/messages kernel
        LOG /var/adm/messages ERROR

But I get no msgs status on the hobbit servers web pages e.g.


System logs at Thu Jun 1 10:07:18 BST 2006 : No log data available

The client did not report any logfile data

Both the config files are owned by user hobbit.

Can a knowledgable person point out where I may have gone wrong please :)

Cheers



If you running the server's client check BBSERVEROS in ~/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg: this must match the [linux] tag in ~/server/etc/client-local.cfg


If your running a client, check the BBOSTYPE when starting it, for example:
"Hobbit client for linux started on zeb1". Again this must match the tag.

Also check what's in the ~/client/tmp/logfetch.HOSTNAME.{cfg|status}
