Boy, do I feel dumb.  The htsearch file in the compile directory did match
the one in the cgi-bin directory, but the /cgi-bin/ alias in srm.conf
didn't point to that directory!  Works fine now.

Are you sure about that? Run htsearch from the source directory from the
command line. Run the copy in the cgi-bin directory. This way you don't
have to worry about the server clouding the issue.

It should only do this if you've still got the old CGI around, or if the
CGI has the wrong default DEFAULT_CONF_FILE compiled in.

htdig: htsearch wants gdbm but db files created

1998-12-04 Thread Peter H. Lemieux

I've built 3.1.0b2 on a Redhat Linux 4.2 box with a 2.0.34 custom kernel. 
Everything compiled successfully with "make" and "make install".  I then ran
rundig -v and pointed it at a small website.  Everything seems to go fine, and
the databases are created in .db format in /usr/local/htdig/db, the directory
specified in CONFIG.  However when I try to search I get the following from
htsearch:

Unable to read word database file '/usr/local/htdig/db/db.words.gdbm'

The htsearch that's in the cgi-bin directory is the one created by the
compile.

Why is it looking for files in the old gdbm format?

PS:  Is there any other documentation for htdig other than what's at
www.htdig.org?  Like maybe a HOWTO for newbies like me?
