Do you have a web server running on port 80? If you open up a browser and enter http://localhost/robots.txt in the address box, do you get a response, or does your browser just timeout? If you do have a web server setup to run on port 80, are you certain it was running when you tried to index the site? Are you sure that http://localhost/home/graeme/gramps/web/ is a valid start_url? Such a URL would seem to imply that your web browser is configured to use / as the document root, which would generally be considered a bad thing and is certainly not typical. If you type this URL into your browser, what happens? If you are just trying to index things locally, you might want to take a look at the local_urls and local_urls_only attributes. http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#local_urls http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#local_urls_only Jim ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: GNOME Foundation Hackers Unite!
