<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>One other thing I've noticed is when
clicking on a status column to get the details (calling bb-hostsvc.sh) I now
get a "Status not available" returned every time. Info and trends work,
but none of the tests like conn or disk. Any
ideas?</FONT></SPAN></DIV><BR>

made. I think you will find that this type of upgrade is more trouble
than it is worth. (I did this first myself and had the same
problems).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=380531917-15092006><FONT face=Arial
size=2> Hi all. I was running Hobbit 4.1.2 on a Red
Hat Linux server, and tried to upgrade to 4.2.0. Since I didn't see
any documentation on doing the upgrade, I stopped Hobbit and Apache, backed
up my current configs and files, and ran the install process for 4.2.0 to be
placed in the same location 4.1.2 was running.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=380531917-15092006><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=380531917-15092006> <FONT face=Arial
size=2>Everything seemed to work, at the bottom of the screen I now see "<A
style="TEXT-DECORATION: none"
href="http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/"><STRONG><FONT size=1>Hobbit Monitor
4.2.0</FONT></STRONG></A>" as the version, but none of the new menus or
options are appearing. For instance under "Views" I still have "NK
View", not critical systems view. NK View still goes to the bbnk.html
page, not the new cgi scripts. The cgi files are in the cgi-bin
directory, just no menu items or links to them. If I directly go to
them they seem to work fine.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
