Install problems

I was recently introduced to Hobbit when searching for a replacement for BB.

I have installed hobbit on an Ubuntu 7.04 server with almost no trouble
except for the fact that I donĀ¹t have a website generating. Hobbit starts
with no errors and I see all of the processes running with a ps command. I
wait for about 5 minutes and bring up a web browser and I don't get a page.
At first I suspected I had made a mistake adding the alias's into the
apache2.conf but everything there seems to be in order. What is more
troubling to me is that when I check the www directory in my hobbit
installation it is empty.

hobbit at RESMACMGMT01:~/server/www$ ls -al
total 40
drwxr-xr-x 10 hobbit hobbit   4096 2007-05-25 13:55 .

So it looks to me that Hobbit simply isn't generating a web page at all. I
am brand new to hobbit so I really don't know what else to check.
