I tried htdig 3.15 and 3.2b .  The start url is just the url to the servlet.  The rest 
of the config file is pretty much default.  I found a copy of my old java code and 
htdig works fine with it.  I added a flush statement, and made a change to the server 
so that it adds a header to each page.  

Htdig may be fine, the problem may be on my end.  It is just wierd that the URL works 
fine with IE and Netscape but not htdig.

Ok, so from your message, I can tell that you're using some flavor of 
3.2.0 beta. It would be useful to know what version you're using, 
what your config file looks like and so on.

Also, I assume you read the upgrade guide mentioned in the release notes?

It's really hard to tell from your description what's going on. The 
URL you posted looks OK, but the referer looks a little weird. Still, 
why do you think it's a problem with ht://Dig? You say you made 
changes to the servlet code--are your old URLs still valid? If you're 
running an update of your databases, then you must remember that it 
will go through and check the old URLs.

One other thing is worth mentioning--n 3.2.0 (and to a limited 
degree in 3.1.5), it will stop indexing servers that it cannot reach. 
So if your server causes a timeout and the indexer cannot get through 
on a retry, it will mark the server as dead. This can be set in 
3.2.0b2 and later through things like tcp_max_retries and 
tcp_wait_time as mentioned in the release notes and documentation.
