Sorry. I *did* read the manual and even search for "maximum" - don't know why 
I missed it. Thank you.

Do you have the endings fuzzy algorithm turned on? If so, do you have 
the .aff files for Spanish? (See, for example the notes in the FAQ 


The endings algorithm should generate root words from words with endings.

There is a maximum word length for indexing. See

This depends on how consistent the patterns are. You can use the 
url_part_aliases attribute to keep one set of URLs for indexing and 
show another set when searching. For example:

in your indexing config:
url_part_aliases: http://www.foo.com/bogus/ *1

in your searching config:
url_part_aliases: http://www.foo.com/normal/ *1

Take a look at the db.wordlist file. Is it in there?

This tells me that you didn't set the paths correctly in the CONFIG 
file before compiling, or you've moved directories around.

This is pretty reasonable. If you don't want to index the "bogus 
pages," make sure they have META robots tags in them, e.g.

While this is fairly off-topic, I can say that I have never seen zlib 
miscompile. I'd make sure you get a copy from a reasonable source and 
make sure it transfers using binary. What version of gcc are you 
using? (I ask because you're using a pretty old kernel.)

You can run htdig (or htmerge) multiple times, as long as more than 
one copy isn't writing to a database at the same time.

Re:[htdig] db.docdb & db.wordlist

[Ing. Noel Vargas Baltodano]

What version are you running? Did it come in one of Red Hat's .RPM
packages or did you downloaded them?

I'm using 3.1.5 (I think that's the right version number...), which came
with RH 6.2 Pro. I installed the RPM, modified the config to the server's
homepage (you may add another urls, it's up to you), then ran htdig.

After that, I ran htmerge, and that was it. Had a little problem with
user's accounts, which was promptly fixed (these guys really know their
stuff), but I had no much problem.

[htdig] Search words seem to become truncated

[SMantscheff]

I'm integrating htDig into our site www.9monate.de. 

When searching for long words, htDig retrieves matches for quite shorter 
words, too; e.g. if you search for "Schwangerschaftsabbruch" you get all 
matches for "Schwangerschaft". I have no idea why.
I set 
search_algorithm: exact:1
in the configuration file, but the result remains the same.

[You can test the behaviour on
