Fixed! - I found that even after stopping hobbit, some processes were
still running. They were likely running when I did the make install. So
- I stopped hobbit - had to kill hobbitlaunch which took everything else
down, did a make clean, reran configure, make and make install.
Restarted hobbit and verything is working again.

Now - I have to wait till 11:00 pm to see if the Downtime fix works.
