What caused which problem? Corruption? I dunno--what causes bit rot in general?
Things taking a week? I'm guessing you're not indexing a large chunk
of the internet, so I would guess that you've probably gotten the
indexer into an infinite loop. How big are the databases--did they
fill the disks or get larger than 2GB each?
You might try running htdig alone with the command-line flags "-v -i"
which will create the databases from scratch (-i) and provide a
progress report as it goes (-v).
