It would help to know what your external_parsers attribute is set to,
but based on the errors above, I'm fairly confident that you're trying
to use an external converter as an external parser. Here are correct
examples of each one...
External converter...
external_parsers: application/pdf->text/html /usr/local/bin/conv_doc.pl
External parser...
external_parsers: application/pdf /usr/local/bin/parse_doc.pl
Note that for external converters, you must explicitly specify what
type of output htdig should expect form the converter. If that isn't
specified, htdig assumes it's an external parser that will produce
records in the very specific format that htdig expects. The conv_doc.pl
and doc2html.pl scripts are two commonly used external converters, and
both of them include examples of their correct usage in their comments.
For more details on this, have a closer look at
http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html#external_parsers and
http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q4.9
