[hobbit] Problem viewing "Critical Systems"

Here are the ScriptAlias settings from httpd.conf.  They seem ok to me -
I can't see what might be wrong with them.

This directory: /home/s-hob1/hobbit/cgi-bin/ is where the nkview.sh
script lives that it is complaining about.  The driectory is
ScriptAliased below in the 2nd stanza.

I am restarting Apache after a change to httpd.conf.

I am running Apache on port 10001.  In my previos email I mentioned port
1000 but meant 10001.

Again the error occurs when I select "Critical Systems" from the views
prompt.

Does the ScriptAlias directive look correct?  Are there log files I can
look at to get more detailed info?  I'm not getting much out of the
Apache logs and I can't find hobbit logs.

Thanks much.
