According to Elsa Chan:
I try doing that, but only one file gets updated from htdig.
/usr/local/htdig/db/db.docdb is the only file that gets updated.
db.docs.index is still old and db.wordlist.new is created by it has 0 bytes
When I try to run htmerge it gives me
htmerge: Unable to open word list file '/usr/local/htdig/db/db.wordlist'
As FAQ 5.16 explains, this happens because htdig didn't index any documents.
I also try running htdig -vvv, but I get this
1:0:http://www.site.net/
New server: www.site.net, 80
I specify in the config file to used a different port and I put the url in
quotes but it doesn't seem to work properly
Any ideas?
You can't use quotes in the start_url, because htdig doesn't parse it as
a quoted string list. See http://www.htdig.org/attrs.html
The port number should be tacked right on to the end of the URL with a
colon, e.g. start_url: http://www.site.net:8001
As for figuring out why it's hanging, and what constitutes a long while,
please see Geoff's response.

According to Elsa Chan:
We just launched a new site, but the search engine is indexing pages that
don't exist anymore. I think I just need to restart htdig except I don't
know how. I trying search for info on theb htdig web site but I couldnjt
find anything. Would you be able to help me?
Running the standard "rundig" script will rebuild your database from
scratch.
You can also manually run "htdig -i" and "htmerge" to do this.
