I'm having some problems running HTDig on two certain folders. The
documents it's indexing are either HTML or TXT. I ran HTDig awhile back
on one of the folders (2002 10Ks), and it indexed everything fine (the
database is around 1.1G, and takes a couple of days to run). However I
received some new files to index in with these older ones, so I ran
htdig -a -c [conf file] -vvv -s to index the new files. However, I kept
receiving a segmentation fault after about 2 hours of htdig running. I
thought 'oh the problem must be the new files'...however I ran .htdig on
the new files, (only 100 or so), and everything indexed great. So now I
have an 'old' files database that does not contain the new ones and a
new file database. However when I run htdig on all the files it always
fails. It doesn't seem to fail on the same file each time, but around
the same timespan after it started. I tried running .htmerge to merge
the two databases...no way. It 'killed' my linux box...totally brought
it to a screeching halt after about 3 hours ... just ate up all the
resources. Any ideas how I might get these two databases together?
With the 3.2 code you can supply multiple config parameters in your search page. So if you set up separate config files for each database you want to search and specify each in the search page, htsearch should hit all of the database and present the merged results. Perhaps this would serve as a temporary work around?
The other is an abort notice I'm receiving when I run HTDig on a set of
There is a known problem with database corruption in recent 3.2 snapshots. This is likely the problem responsible for the aborts and segfaults you are running into. Efforts are currently being made to track down and correct the problem.
Last question (I promise). My htsearch.htm file has several different
conf files to choose from using radio buttons. When a user chooses a
certain cof file on the first screen, how can that variable be passed to
the next screen (like header.html) so that the relevant radio button is
checked? I see that htsearch uses $&(CONF)" however I wasn't sure how
to utilize this in the sense of 'checking' radio buttons.
If you haven't already done so, you might want to take a look at the following two attributes.
