Both htdig and htmerge make use of the TMPDIR environment variable (note
the name is all caps). That error message seems to be coming from
pdftotext, though, and not htdig or doc2html.pl. That means that the
file is being created and htdig is calling doc2html.pl, which in turn
is calling pdftotext.

I'd check your definition for the default config file in CONFIG to make
sure you have the right path, and are using forward slashes (/) rather
than backslashes (\) in the path.
