I assume you've also added an entry for application/excel to your external_parsers definition? You didn't say what it looks like, but it must be there or I don't think htdig would even fetch the document. I'd guess that the most likely problem is a configuration problem in doc2html.pl. Try running it manually on one of your Excel spreadsheets, e.g. (all on one line): /path/to/doc2html.pl /home/ardopt/software/upload/RB/KarlGustav/ARDOPT_keywords.xls application/excel http://192.168.0.206/~ardopt/software/upload/RB/KarlGustav/ARDOPT_keywords.xls?articleID=1 (of course making sure I guessed correctly at the path to the file above.) If this works, then make sure external_parsers is set to call it correctly. > ----------------- htdig results: ----------------- > > pick: 192.168.0.206, # servers = 1 > 43:43:2:http://192.168.0.206/~ardopt/software/upload/RB/KarlGustav/ARDOPT_keywords.xls?articleID=1: > ... > Header line: Content-Type: application/excel > Header line: > returnStatus = 0 > Read 8192 from document > Read 5632 from document > Read a total of 13824 bytes > size = 13824 > pick: 192.168.0.206, # servers = 1 ... -- Gilles R.
