[htdig] HOWTO? setp-by-step?
Does someone have a step-by-step HOWTO for ht://Dig ? I have downloaded and installed (configure;make;make install) everything and it is installed right. I just can't seem to get the bloody thing to WORK! Or, is there an issue using it on a webserver that uses the Microsoft FrontPAge extensions?

Re: [htdig] HOWTO? setp-by-step?
Geordon I suppose that apache is running fine, right? The next question would be, what exactly do you want to do with htdig? Just have a search engine for your site or what?

Re: [htdig] HOWTO? setp-by-step?
Tht is correct: Apache works JUST fine. :) And yes, I just want to have ht://Dig index my server and use it as a basic search. I have it installed, like I said, and I can get to the SEARCH page, as well as enter something in the box and have the CGI run. However, it doesn't seem to FIND anything. At the install, everything got put into /opt/www which is fine for me. In /opt/www/db there are the files, and they have "size," so I know that there is something IN them. Who should they be owned by? (Currently, it's root:root) Thanks, Geordon Original Message On 1/18/01, 3:32:56 PM, "Ing.

Re: [htdig] HOWTO? setp-by-step?
Ok, I took a look at it again, and everything can be read by the
Webserver. When I run the htsearch from either the command line OR the
HTML interface, it comes back and says that there were no matches found.
Now, granted, there's not a lot on my site at this point, but when I
searched for a word that was in the text of one of the pages (Not in a
META tag) the HTSEARCH came back with "no matches found"
One thing else that I noticed is that I seem to have to include the -c
{configfile} when I run it manually. I would think that ht://Dig would
know where to loko for the default config file... Does this seem right?
Thanks for your input.
Geordon

Re: [htdig] HOWTO? setp-by-step?
Geordon You have to edit the htdig.conf file according to your directory structure (start url, etc.) and your needs. Then you run htdig and htmerge. Try running htdig with the -i option to re-do the database from scratch and the -vvv option to see exactly what it is indexing. -- Noel Vargas Baltodano [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gerente de Sistemas Nicatechnologies, S.A. http://www.nicatech.com.ni To unsubscribe from the htdig mailing list, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You will receive a message to confirm this.
