Did you run "make clean" before recompiling? What OS are you running the
hobbit server on?

Well, moving the log directory to the local disk stopped the error
messages but I'm still getting empty graphs.

Dean, the requirements show PCRE, RRDtool, libpng, OpenSSL and
OpenLDAP libraries. I've got all of those:

(from ./configure)

Checking for RRDtool ...
test-rrd.c: In function 'main':
test-rrd.c:30: error: too few arguments to function 'rrd_graph'
make: *** [test-compile] Error 1
Not RRDtool 1.0.x, checking for 1.2.x
Found RRDtool include files in /usr/include
Found RRDtool libraries in /usr/lib
Linking RRD with PNG library: -L/usr/lib -lpng


Checking for PCRE ...
Found PCRE include files in /usr/include
Found PCRE libraries in /usr/lib


Checking for OpenSSL ...
Found OpenSSL include files in /usr/include
Found OpenSSL libraries in /usr/lib

Any more ideas?
