Well, for whatever reason, htdig is not taking this exclude_urls setting. You need to work through every point in FAQ 5.31 until you've ruled them all out. It might be helpful if you posted an exact copy of your whole htdig.conf file, so that we could see it in context. Also, how are you editing this file, and are you sure it has the proper line-feed character as line terminator? If you're editing it on a Mac, chances are it'll have CR instead of LF line terminators. > Am I doing something wrong? Did I fail to follow instructions properly? > Is there something else I need to do/try? Did you make any changes at all to your "rundig" script? If so, you should perhaps post a copy of that too, especially if the changes involve the use of the -c command line option to htdig. > As for the question, "Do you interrupt?"

As Jim said, if the db.log file isn't there, then you've ruled out this problem already. That you let htdig complete its cycle confirms it. This was a bit of a red herring anyway, as I forgot that you were running 3.1.5, not 3.1.6. (Any reason for running an older version, by the way?) In 3.1.5, it would only have produced the db.log file if you ran "htdig -l" and then interrupted it. Focus instead on http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q5.31 points 4-6. -- Gilles R.
