RE: [htdig] htsearch works Intermittenly - also can't run advanced queries - PHP

[Michael \"NightEye\" Aeberhard]

I got access to the error logs and this is what I get after running your PHP
wrapper:

: not a legal variable name
: No such file or directorydig/htdig.sh: /home/sites/site21/local/htdig/bin

Note that I did have to fix 2 things in your htdig.sh script.  One was the
HTBINDIR variable, which in the script was
HTBINDIR=/home/sites/site21/local/htdig/bin/htsearch - but, when
$HTBINDIR/htsearch was run it resolves to
/home/sites/site21/local/htdig/bin/htsearch/htsearch <-- doesn't exist.
After I edited that I got the error above, before that I got the error:

/home/sites/site21/local/htdig/htdig.sh:
/home/sites/site21/local/htdig/bin/htse
: No such file or directory

(I couldn't view that whole line, my command-line window cut it off.)

Any ideas?

- Mike

I suggest it's the *way* you are using it and not the htdig.sh script
itself.

Talking off list accomplishes little when input of others helps.    It's
always better to conduct conversations such as ours on the list.

Ahh yes, I suggest you following the instructions associated with my
wrapper and get back to me with the questions I had.

That should be easy to accomplish.  Without them, I suggest you can't
do much.  Again, the wrapper works.  You just need to follow the
directions.  If they don't work for you, please let me know.
