I was trying to give custom options in *bin/crawl* script and encountered an issue. I gave a custom config in nutch to ignore external outlinks in my crawl command like :-
*bin/crawl -i -D elastic.index=test -D db.ignore.external.links=true urls/ CrawlTest/ 3* But this is not working. Then I set this property in nutch-site.xml then it is working. Then I tried to set a custom config to index data to a specific elastic index other than what is given in nutch-site.xml as java option in bin/crawl. To my surprise it is working. The command I've used :- *bin/crawl -i -D elastic.index=test urls/ CrawlTest/ 3* So I would like to know why my first command didn't work ?Am I missing anything. Please help.
