Running the following command:

./bin/nutch crawl urls -dir crawl.test -depth 3 >& crawl.log

Generates the following text in crawl.log

Fetcher: No agents listed in 'http.agent.name' property.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Fetcher: No
agents listed in 'http.agent.name' property.

My questions are:

Is the property being referred to supposed to be that listed in

nutch-site.xml
If so, then the xml value is:

<property>
 <name>http.agent.name</name>
 <value>mini3</value>
 <description>HTTP 'User-Agent' request header. MUST NOT be empty -
 please set this to a single word uniquely related to your organization.

 NOTE: You should also check other related properties:

       http.robots.agents
       http.agent.description
       http.agent.url
       http.agent.email
       http.agent.version

 and set their values appropriately.

 </description>
</property>

Can someone reproduce this error or tell me how to correct it? Additionally
it should be noted that I have not yet gotten this to run successfully.
