I am trying to search only part of my site. I created an html file that
lists the documents I want searched.  I created a separate configuration
file and specified a separate database_dir directory.  In the
configuration file I gave the html file that lists the documents to be
searched as the start_url.
I ran htdig and htmerge (rundig) with this alternate configuration file
and it seems to have worked.  When I look at the htdig log file at the
end, I see the following: (which is what I expect)
htdig: Run complete
htdig: 2 servers seen
htdig:      www.weizmann.ac.il:80 131 documents
htdig:      www.wisdom.weizmann.ac.il:80 3 documents

I created a separate search form that specifies the new configuration
file as the value for the config parameter.  The problem is that when I
do a search, I consistently get back that no matches were found.
Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thanks for any help.

Did you check the new database directory after executing rundig to ensure that new databases were actually created? Also, if you are using rundig with '-a', did you update the DBDIR variable appropriately in the rundig script?

How did you name your new config file and how did you reference it from
the new search page? The config file should be in the directory specified
at build time and should have a .conf extension. In the search form it
should have neither a path nor the .conf extension. Did you remove the
original config setting from the new search page?

You might also try running htsearch from the command line to see if it
also fails to find any matches.
