IN SHORT:
--------
I cannot get my install to work! 
There seem to be something wrong with the /cgi-bin/ containing the htsearch.

html search result:

Not Found
The requested URL /cgi-bin/htsearch was not found on this server.
Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/1.3.20 Server at 192.168.1.1 Port 80

SYSTEM:
-------
My apache which has been up and running for 9 months now on my
Mandrake 8.1 with Apache 1.3.20

I recall that during that install of Apache 1.3.20, I moved apache to the 
/home catalog since I have that as a separate partition. Something might have 
happened then, but the apache is running smoothely for my html- and 
php-files. And I am currently reluctant to do an unnescessary reinstall of a 
working webserver.

Now as I wanted to install htdig, I notice that there was one copy of htdig 
3.2.0 already installed. It didn't work, although it had a higher edition 
number(?), I removed it and tried installing the most recent, htdig 1.3.6

/home/httpd/html/
contains the files that are shown via apache.
In parallel, on the same level as the
/home/httpd/html/
the
/home/httpd/cgi-bin/
was placed.

I have however never tested that part of the apache since I havent used 
anything but php for scripting before. Thinking, maybe this folder didn't 
work, I generated a new folder in addition, and installed over again with 
htsearch to be placed in it:

/home/httpd/html/cgi-bin/

THE INSTALL:
------------
I installed the htdig 1.3.6

I did among other things the following cchanges to the CONFIG file:
prefix=                 /home/httpd/html/htdig
CGIBIN_DIR=             /home/httpd/html/cgi-bin
SEARCH_DIR=             /home/httpd/html/htdig

The install went OK according to the messages as I followed the Instructions 
on the installation page at htdig.org

I generated the test database by running the rundig:
 /home/httpd/html/htdig/bin/rundig
This went OK as the command line test of the htsearch seemed to work properly 
- at least the output generated lots of feedback that might be sencible 
(judgded by a novice)

I have done total deletion of the htdig installs a few times, and redid the 
full install procedure. The quote above from the CONFIG is the last one.

---------------------------
I searched around and found that this problem had been adressed before on 
this list. I found something from a year ago, and the last one was from a 
week ago.

There was some reference to ScriptAlias(?)

I do not have any ScriptAlias in my httpd.conf.  What seems to be wrong?
