OK, I found the solution. Just want to share with you guys. Thank you everyone who helped me out in troubleshooting this issue.
I editted the /home/hobbit/cgi-bin/bb-hostsvc.sh file
and added the following as top two lines:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Now it's working :)

Does he need to?? He already fixed the error in bb-display.log by adding:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
to hobbitserver.cfg. Shouldn't that also fix the cgi error?? bb-hostsvc.cgi pulls in
/home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitcgi.cfg
which in turn does this:
# hobbitsvc.cgi options for a normal (current) status display
CGI_SVC_OPTS="--env=/home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg --no-svcid --histor
y=top"
so the cgi ought to pick up the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Or does Apache need to have LD_LIBRARY_PATH in *its* startup script so that the cgi gets it??

In the /var/log/apache2/error.log file I see the following error:
[Tue Nov 18 12:30:32 2008] [error] [client X.X.X.X] Premature end of script headers: bb-hostsvc.sh, referer: http://X.X.X.X/hobbit/
/home/hobbit/server/bin/hobbitsvc.cgi: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
How can I fix this?
Thanks.

Take a look in your Apache log directory. There should be an error_log file there with some useful information about what broke.

I got it working :)
Here's what I did, I checked /var/log/hobbit/bb-display.log file and there I saw the following error message repeating over and over:
bbgen: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Did google on this error, and found that I needed to add:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
to hobbitserver.cfg, and then restart Hobbit.
Which fixed my issue.
But I have another question:
When I click on the status icons. I get the following error. Is this normal?
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or
misconfiguration and was unable to complete
your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster at localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred,
and anything you might have done that may have
caused the error.
More information about this error may be available
in the server error log.

Note when I did a grep server\/www * in the server/etc/ directory I only got the hobbit-apache.conf. My output is definitely in server/www.

Since you changed the home directory from /usr/local/hobbit to /home/hobbit, I suspect that there may still be something pointing to /usr/local/hobbit. Grep through the configuration files in the Xymon etc directory looking for anything pointing to /usr/local. You might also check the scripts in bin.

Apache is fine in this case. For whatever reason Xymon isn't outputting html content in server/www
I grep'ed through my config and I don't see where that is configurable. It may be compiled in for all I know. Would you have the capability to recompile the source?

Are you doing \hobbit\bb.html ?
That is what mine is.
Try that and see if it works for you.

If the processes are running and you're not filling that directory with
index/bb/bb2.html files then you probably have the output directory set to
another directory then where that Alias (or Vhost) is pointing.
As was mentioned you do have to wait a good minute or two before that
directory is populated. In my experience I never have that wait as I wait
between every step to accomplish something else.

Hello everyone,
For the first time, I am trying to install Hobbit on my Ubuntu Linux Server. I followed the installation instructions provided on http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/
Every step went fine but when I started hobbit and typed in the hobbit address [ http://server-ip/hobbit/ ] in the browser, instead of getting the main page, I get the directory structure (see below)? What am I missing here?
Please assist. Thank you!
