Thanks Gilles, Very wierd, I solved my indexing problems by quitting my browser, then relaunching between indexing sessions (?????). My path to the config file was off too (doh), that's where the error was coming from but the indexing was only taking the default page, quitting the browser between index.cgi sessions fixed that. Then I went in and added the header and footer strings to the config file myself, works like a charm now.
