Hobbit/BBWin bug? hobbit_client dumping core.

[Everett, Vernon]

Hi all
 
Had a problem with Hobbit over the weekend, which may be a bug. The dev
guys might want to have a look at it.
 
We are monitoring a number of Windoze servers, all running BBWin -
Latest edition.
Server1    Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition Service Pack
1 (build 3790)
Server2    Microsoft Windows 2000 Server Service Pack 4 (build 2195)
	Server3    Microsoft Windows 2000 Server Service Pack 4 (build
2195)
 
Hobbit server is running 4.2.0 with all-in-one patch applied on Red Hat
Linux 2.6.18-92.1.1.el5
We also have the required BBWin patch applied.
 
In hobbit-client.cfg I had the servers configured as
HOST=server1,server2,server3
        SVC "AppStart" startup=automatic status=started color=red
        SVC "AppServer" status=started color=red
        PROC AppStart.exe 1 -1 red
        PROC Appserver.exe 1 -1 red
        PROC AppHelper.exe 1 -1 red
 
Hobbit started core dumping, and many tests went purple.
Under the hobbit server, a new column "hobbitd_client" appeared as red.
 
Changed the entries to 
 
HOST=server1
        SVC "AppStart" startup=automatic status=started color=red
        SVC "AppServer" status=started color=red
        PROC AppStart.exe 1 -1 red
        PROC Appserver.exe 1 -1 red
        PROC AppHelper.exe 1 -1 red

HOST=server2
        SVC "AppStart" startup=automatic status=started color=red
        SVC "AppServer" status=started color=red
        PROC AppStart.exe 1 -1 red
        PROC Appserver.exe 1 -1 red
        PROC AppHelper.exe 1 -1 red
 
HOST=server3
        SVC "AppStart" startup=automatic status=started color=red
        SVC "AppServer" status=started color=red
        PROC AppStart.exe 1 -1 red
        PROC Appserver.exe 1 -1 red
        PROC AppHelper.exe 1 -1 red
 
Ran ~/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "drop hobbit hobbitd_client"
And all was well.
 
I have saved a few of the cores if anybody is interested in
investigating this one.
 
Regards
     Vernon
