[hobbit] bbgen program crashed?

[Dean Casey]

I had to do the same - stop all Hobbit processes on the server while
re-compiling and then re-start Hobbit afterward. That seemed to prevent
the mysterious crashes Jason mentions. 

Fortunately, in our setup we have two failover production servers and a
test box - so I was able to compile on the test server and run the
patches there for a few days; then compile on the standby prod server;
then failover to the standby system (invisibly to users); compile on
primary; then fail back to primary. (Sounds more complicated than it
actually was.) 

My guess would be that in a running server, some images or libraries in
memory that won't match what's on disk if you do a recompile without
first shutting down any running Hobbit processes.

I had the same problem.

I think it was because I didnt stop the hobbit client/server when doing 
the make install.

So I went back and killed all the hobbit processes then did a make
install.
Then restarted everything and it worked.

good luck, michael
