[hobbit] still trying - installation

[Scott, Brian]

1. Do the configure, make, make install thing again with your new
options. Very painless since it seems to protect your existing settings.
 
2. Depends on your webserver. There's a piece of apache config in
~hobbit/server/etc/hobbit-apache.conf that gets configured when you
install hobbit. You can either append that to your apache configuration
(should work for all versions), or for newer versions of apache add an
include line to your config:
    Include /export/hobbit/server/etc/hobbit-apache.conf
This works with apache 2.2 but possibly not earlier versions. It has the
advantage that if I change things and/or install a new version then my
apache config will be automatically adjusted.
 
Hope this helps

I was finally able to get hobbit to complete the installation process .
. .

as you can see, near the end of the makefile, I had to leave out OpenSSl
and Openldap for the install to complete.

 

I have a few questions:

 

1.	Is there a way to later include OpenSSl and Openldap to be
monitored? 
2.	Is there detailed instruction of how to configure your webserver
so that it knows where the Hobbit webpages can be found? 

 

 

 

 

 

Here's the content of my Makefile form
/export/home/hobbit/hobbit-4.2.0

 

 

# Toplevel Makefile for Hobbit

BUILDTOPDIR=`pwd`

 

# configure settings for Hobbit

#

# Toplevel dir

BBTOPDIR = /export/home/hobbit

# Server home dir for etc/, bin/

BBHOME = /export/home/hobbit/server

# Server data dir for hist/ etc.

BBVAR = /export/home/hobbit/data

# CGI scripts go in CGIDIR

CGIDIR = /var/cgi-bin

# Admin CGI scripts go in SECURECGIDIR

SECURECGIDIR = /var/cgi-secure

# Where to put logfiles

BBLOGDIR = /var/log/hobbit

# Where to install manpages

MANROOT = /usr/local/man

# How to run fping or hobbitping

FPING = /usr/local/sbin/fping

 

# Username running hobbit

BBUSER = hobbit

# Hobbit server hostname

BBHOSTNAME = server1

# Hobbit server IP-address

BBHOSTIP = server1-IP

# Hobbit server OS

BBHOSTOS = sunos

 

# URL for Hobbit webpages

BBHOSTURL = /hobbit

# URL for Hobbit CGIs

BBCGIURL = /hobbit-cgi

# URL for Hobbit Admin CGIs

SECUREBBCGIURL = /hobbit-seccgi

# Webserver group-ID

HTTPDGID=nobody

 

# RRDtool settings

RRDDEF = 

RRDINCDIR = -I/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49/include

RRDLIBS = -L/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49/lib -lrrd -L/usr/sfw/lib -lpng

RPATHVAL += /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49/lib

 

# PCRE settings

PCREINCDIR = -I/usr/local/include

PCRELIBS = -L/usr/local/lib -lpcre

RPATHVAL += /usr/local/lib

#

# OpenSSL settings

SSLFLAGS = 

#

# OpenLDAP settings

LDAPFLAGS = 

# Large File Support settings

LFSDEF = -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64

 

include build/Makefile.SunOS

 

 

# Add local CFLAGS etc. settings here

 

include build/Makefile.rules
