RE: [hobbit] Testing Hobbit alerts - solved (PEBCAK)



All,

I would like to offer my thanks to Henrik for putting up with my foolish
questions whilst I tried to figure out what was wrong.

The problem was resolved by my removing the "DISABLED" line in the
[bbpage] section of the hobbitlaunch.cfg file...

I can't remember how many times in my line of work I have berated people
for being stupid, I guess it's my turn now :-( . Still, on the bright
side it IS working now and hopefully this little email thread will help
others to not make the same mistakes...
