Thanks for the assistance - I understand what it does a bit better now. However I had some interesting behaviour I thought I might share. For starters - all versions of the config files contained the following: start_url: http://localhost/search/search_root.html limit_urls_to: http://localhost/ local_urls: http://localhost/=/var/www/myserver/html OK. The follwoing did not work. It would dig OK, but I would get no search results. By that, I means that I would get an OK looking header and footer, but no displayed results at all. dig.conf: url_part_aliases: http://localhost/ *1 search.conf: url_part_aliases: / *1 However, I realised that all the files of interested just happened to be in a subdirectory called "help". So, I decided to make use of this and try: dig.conf: url_part_aliases: http://localhost/help/ *1 search.conf: url_part_aliases: /help/ *1 which did work OK. For some reason, the single "/" was being rejected. Is this a bug?
