Hi again. You'd get a faster reply if you kept your questions on the list. See http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q1.17
According to Alan Jiang: > Thanks for your reply to my questions. Now I understand how the "to" > string works.

Why are you using a long URL part instead of a short, internal encoding like the *1 in the documentation's examples? Reread http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q4.17 carefully, especially the 3rd paragraph. > what I am trying to do is to convert the URL displayed in the search > results from > http://accounting.rutgers.edu/raw/fasb > > to > > http://www.fasb.org You're almost there. Just pick a "to" string that doesn't conflict with the strings in common_url_parts and you should be able to do this. > I then delete all the files in directory db, run the "rundig -c htdig.conf > -a" command. However, when I run the search, I got the following message: > > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > htsearch detected an error.

This would suggest that htmerge isn't running to completion. Try one or more -v options on the rundig command and see where the error is happening.
