Have a look at the CONFIG file in the main htdig-3.1.5 source directory and make sure all the paths are set as you want them. Then try recompiling. You may have to "make clean" before "make", to make sure you get rid of binaries compiled with incorrect paths. Then, a "make install" should install the new binaries. Note though that after you've already done one "make install", subsequent runs of "make install" will overwrite the binaries but not any config files or HTML files that were already installed. This is to keep from clobbering any files you may have customized. So, you may also need to check these files for any incorrect paths as well. Finally, be aware that if you rerun ./configure at any point in your main source directory, it will regenerate CONFIG from CONFIG.in, so you will lose any changes you've edited into CONFIG. In the upcoming 3.1.6 release, as well as in the 3.2 betas, you can specify all your paths via command line options to ./configure, so you will no longer have to hand-edit changes in CONFIG. -- Gilles R.
