[Xymon] APT Check from Hobbit-Plugins Package - Purple Status

[Joseph De Nicolo]

Xymon Users & Admins,

I recently installed an apt check on my clients that I received from this
hobbit-plugins package:
https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hobbit-plugins

Steps for Installation:
1. Copy over client-ext/apt script to client/ext/apt
2. Gave xymon user rights to execute the apt script
3. Copy over perl/Hobbit.pm to /etc/perl/Hobbit.pm
4. Copy and pasted the lines found in clientlaunch.d/apt.cfg to the end of
client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg and modified the paths(ENVFILE & LOGFILE) to
fit my client's environment

The problem:
I set this up last week on friday jan 11th. At that time I ran the
client/ext/apt script as xymon user and it gave the report as expected.
However, after the weekend the last report was the same one on the 11th so
I am receiving a purple status for inactivity of the report. The clients
are not automatically sending the apt check report to the server. Anything
I missed in the installation or something I have to do server side?

Any response appreciated
Thanks,
*                                                            *
