[hobbit] Status Unavailable

[Vernon Everett]

Something else I noticed.
Sometimes, the main screen gives me the header and the footer, and no
info.
No blobs/smileys, no columns, no server names, nothing.
Just the menu, the logo, "CURRENT STATUS" and the date at the top, and a
line.
Then the footer. Line and Hobbit version.
It is also on a green background, even though I have at least one test
that is reporting yellow.

Regards
   Vernon

Hi all

Here's an interesting one.

I have been running Hobbit for a few months now, and everything has been
good.
Upgraded to 4.0.3, and all was well.

The suddenly, a few days ago, I started getting intermittant errors when
I click on the faces/blobs for more information.
Sometimes it works, and I get what I want.
Other times, it times out and I get "Status not available" on a white
screen.

I tried the following
1. Restarting Hobbit.
2. Restarting the web server
3. Rebooting the server
4. Upgrading to Hobbit 4.0.4

Still no improvement.

Looking again, I can rule out the Web server, because I get the main
page, and the column info links on the column description works.
I think I can rule out the network, because all the monitored machines
are reachable and pingable from Hobbit.
I think I ruled out a bug by upgrading to 4.0.4

I am still getting e-mail alerts (some of the time) and graphs are being
updated (partially).
When it does the "Status not available" trick for long periods of time,
it doesn't upgrade the status or the graphs during that period.

Any ideas, pointers or tips?

Regards
   Vernon
