I'm not quite sure what you mean by "the search works fine." Do you mean that you've done some indexing and htsearch works on that?
The error message is from htdig and the path that you've given is certainly not where a Mandrake RPM would install htdig. Have you compiled ht://Dig from source? The error message occurs because when indexing, htdig cannot create the document database. This happens because either: 1) The directories specified in the config file do not exist. 2) The directories exist, but the user running htdig does not have permission to create files in the db/ directory. (Or along the same lines, the user may not have permission to even read or enter the directories.) There are certainly a variety of threads along these lines, but it's not a problem with ht://Dig. Check that you've installed the package correctly. (You may want to try an RPM.) Check that the directories exist, that you can create files in that directory and that you don't have multiple copies of htdig, htmerge, etc. on your machine that are getting mixed up. -- -Geoff Hutchison Williams Students Online http://wso.williams.edu/ At 1:53 PM -0800 1/31/02, CVR wrote: >I have installed htdig on Mandrake Linux 8.0 with >apache web serv.
