I don't understand the way htdig's -a option works because it doesn't seem to be
working 100% of the
time for me. I made an initial dig. Next I moved the database files to a new
directory. In that
new directory, I have the following files:
-rw-r--r-- 1 htdig www 788894720 Apr 14 23:23 db.docdb
-rw-r--r-- 1 htdig www 7619584 Apr 21 11:16 db.docdb.work
-rw-r--r-- 1 htdig www 9588736 Apr 14 23:23 db.docs.index
-rw-r--r-- 1 htdig www 1144144705 Apr 21 11:16 db.wordlist.work
-rw-r--r-- 1 htdig www 935610368 Apr 14 19:49 db.words.db
When I execute /usr/local/htdig/htdig -v -a -s -c htdig.conf (which sets the
database_dir attribute
to the directory containing the files listed above, it does not seem to be using any
of the existing
.work files to do the update or to speed things up. The digging from scratch takes
several days
because of the size, but for the updating it should take less time. I've seen the
verbose output
from htdig report: "Not changed" in the past on small updates when the database files
stay in the
same directory, but now it seems to be http requesting the documents as if it was
doing an initial
dig, and this will take too long. The output reports the size of the files instead of
"Not
changed". What am I doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated.
