The core files would generally be somewhere in the Xymon home directory structure. You might also want to look in the hobbit name pages to see how to enable debug options on the various components.<div><br></div><div>Ralph Mitchell</div>

I was searching for something like that, but haven't found any. Where would the core files reside?<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Mar 28, 2009 at 12:38 PM, Ralph Mitchell <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ralphmitchell@gmail.com" target="_blank">ralphmitchell@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>I have one client which was was installed as user 'xymon' (configure/make/make install).<br>
<br>I run the client with 'runclient.sh start' and I see the services go great on the web interface. All looks great.<br><br>After about 30 minutes however, the client seems to stop sending reports to the server, and all services go purple.<br>
<br>Here's what I see when looking at the process listing on the client when things are working correctly:<br><br><font size="1"><span style="color:rgb(153, 0, 0)">xymon@JBLDMZWEB01:~/client$ ps -ef | grep hobbit</span><br style="color:rgb(153, 0, 0)">
<span style="color:rgb(153, 0, 0)">xymon 25702 1 0 05:23 ? 00:00:00 /home/xymon/client/bin/hobbitlaunch --config=/home/xymon/client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg --log=/home/xymon/client/logs/clientlaunch.log --pidfile=/home/xymon/client/logs/clientlaunch.JBLDMZWEB01.pid</span><br style="color:rgb(153, 0, 0)">
<span style="color:rgb(153, 0, 0)">xymon 25724 1 0 05:23 ? 00:00:00 sh -c vmstat 300 2 1>/home/xymon/client/tmp/hobbit_vmstat.JBLDMZWEB01.25707 2>&1; mv /home/xymon/client/tmp/hobbit_vmstat.JBLDMZWEB01.25707 /home/xymon/client/tmp/hobbit_vmstat.JBLDMZWEB01 </span></font><br>
<br>And then when the client stops reporting to the server, the process listing looks like this:<br><br><font size="1"><span style="color:rgb(153, 51, 0)">xymon@JBLDMZWEB01:~/client$ ps -ef | grep hobbit</span><br style="color:rgb(153, 51, 0)">
<span style="color:rgb(153, 51, 0)">xymon 25702 1 0 05:23 ? 00:00:00 /home/xymon/client/bin/hobbitlaunch --config=/home/xymon/client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg --log=/home/xymon/client/logs/clientlaunch.log --pidfile=/home/xymon/client/logs/clientlaunch.JBLDMZWEB01.pid</span><br style="color:rgb(153, 51, 0)">
</font><br><br>So other than the virtual memory stats missing from the process list, it seems like it should still be sending reports.<br><br>I've checked the log files in 'logs/' and 'tmp/' but found nothing useful.<br>
<br>This is a pretty fresh install of the Xymon server/client, so there isn't really much that hsould be affecting it.<br><br>Should I be running the client as root? Does it provide more logs that way?<br><br>Any thoughts?<br>
