Greetings. I see this list is relatively quiet (no posts for the last 3 months - wow). I found the searchable archives quite useful, and thought I'd throw in my two cents worth of experiences here.
Apparently the archiver is broken. There have definitely been posts in the last three months.
But, after it was all done, I had one issue that I could not get past, which was the nightly_htdig script (courtesy of mailman) kept blowing up and core dumping. This script basically checks the lists for activity, and does a RUNDIG on the archives for the purpose of updating the indices. It seemed to work, sort of, and generate results- but it would run for something like 15 minutes and then dump. And the searchable stuff was quite tiny - only a handful of pages.
I know you have found another solution, and this might not be related, but there is a nasty bug in the 3.1.6 htnotify that affects selected platforms, including at least some versions of Solaris. Typically this bug results in memory being consumed until there is no more available, at which point the program crashes. There is a patch available that addresses this issue. ftp://ftp.ccsf.org/htdig-patches/3.1.6/htnotifyNull.0 Jim ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
