Hello,
I'm attempting to get Mailman 2.1.20 working with htdig.
I've installed the htdig patch for this version of Mailman from Mark's site.
When I run a search from the archive pages, I get a blank page.
I've seen others asking this, but have never seen a solution.
I think I may have had this working a few years ago, but don't remember what
I did to fix it. It broke when cpanel updated mailman.
When I try running the mmsearch script by itself, I get the following error,
which is expected as I under stand it:
htdig Archives Access Failure
CGI problem. -5-Field count -4- fields:
If you want to make another attempt to access a list archive then go via the
list users information page.


If this problem persists then please e-mail the following information to the
mailman at nfbnet.org:
     Referer not known
     /mailman/mmsearch/blparent_nfbnet.org


Running the htsearch command by itself doesn't yield any results with a
keyword and the short format.
The version of htdig is 3.2.0b6. I noticed that there are patched versions
of rundig and the nightly scripts on the patch site, but don't know if that
applies to newer patches or not.


Any help would be appreciated.

    I'd be surprised if this doesn't have conflicts with cPanel's mods. What
    happened when you ran patch? were there any rejects?

    Not surprising. cPanel's mailman has many patches of its own, mostly
    because of the list name = name_domain feature to allow lists of the
    same 'name' in different domains.

    Yes, this is expected. You could try going to a URL like


    <http://example.com/mailman/mmsearch/LISTNAME?method=and&format=short&sort=score&config=LISTNAME>

    The above is not familiar to me. It may be a cPanel thing.

    Do you specify the -c option with an appropriate config file?

    Those patches allow the nightly update to do an update rather than a
    complete rebuild of the htdig search index.

    Hello,
    I do not get any rejects when applying the patch.
    I did pass the config file for the list to htsearch with the -c option.
    Any other ideas?
    How are people typically handling archive search? I know I could use
    mail-archive, but would rather handle things on our end if we can.
    Occasionally we need to remove messages from the archives and not sure how
    easy that is with mail-archive.

    The attached htsearch.txt is a transcript of an htsearch interaction on
    my system. If you do the same do you get similar output? If not, your
    htdig installation is broken.

    I use htdig with Richard Barrett's patches as forward ported by me.

    Absolutely unbelievable!
    I got results to come up by simlinking /var/www/html/htdig to
    /usr/share/htdig. Apparently this path is hard-coded in the binaries.
    I installed htdig from the Centos 6.7 packages. It wouldn't compile from
    source for some reason.

    Hi,
    Almost got it. Since some of our lists are very large and the archives go
    back almost 7 years, generating the indexes can take a very long time.
    To be able to update the indexes, do I need both the rundig and
    nightly_htdig patches from msapiro.net/mm? The rundig patch failed when I
    tried to patch the rundig from 3.2.0b6.

    I don't understand this. My rundig is probably different from yours in
    that I applied the patch from
    <ftp://ftp.ccsf.org/htdig-patches/3.2.0b6/rundig.0> before creating the
    rundig patch you are applying, but this should only result in a couple
    of line # offsets, not a failure of hunk 2 or fuzz in hunk 1.


    Send me a copy of your rundig off list and I'll look at it.

    This rundig is from the centos 6.7 htdig package.

    Your rundig has been modified from the 3.2.0b6 htdig base. The base
    rundig always does a full rebuild of the index My patch to rundig adds a
    '-u' option to do an 'update' rather than a full rebuild. Your
    RedHat/Centos package rundig already has this option only it's '-i' for
    incremental.

    Thus, you don't need to patch your rundig at all unless you want to
    uncomment line 79 (which my patch does) per lines 77-79

    # If you want to use the soundex and (or) metaphone fuzzy matchings,
    # Uncomment the following line
    # $BINDIR/htfuzzy $opts soundex metaphone

    What you do need to do however is change nightly_htdig. My patch added
    amongst other things the line

    init_or_update = ' -u'

    per

    @@ -109,6 +109,7 @@
    # test if the archive volume directories mod times have

    rundig_run_file = os.path.join(list_htdig_dir, 'rundig_last_run')

    try:

    You need to change that to

    init_or_update = ' -i'

    because in your rundig the 'incremental' option is '-i', not '-u'.

    Hello,
    I made the modifications you suggested.
    Now when I run nightly_htdig on a list, I get an error back that "I" is an
    invalid option for htfuzzy. I uncommented that line in the rundig script.
    Any ideas?
    If it isn't critical, I can just re-comment that line.

    Your rundig has been modified from the 3.2.0b6 htdig base. The base
    rundig always does a full rebuild of the index My patch to rundig adds
    a '-u' option to do an 'update' rather than a full rebuild. Your
    RedHat/Centos package rundig already has this option only it's '-i'
    for incremental.

    Thus, you don't need to patch your rundig at all unless you want to
    uncomment line 79 (which my patch does) per lines 77-79

    # If you want to use the soundex and (or) metaphone fuzzy matchings, #
    Uncomment the following line # $BINDIR/htfuzzy $opts soundex metaphone

    What you do need to do however is change nightly_htdig. My patch added
    amongst other things the line

    init_or_update = ' -u'

    per

    @@ -109,6 +109,7 @@
    # test if the archive volume directories mod times have
    # changed
    recent_posts = None
    + init_or_update = ' -u'
    rundig_run_file = os.path.join(list_htdig_dir, 'rundig_last_run')
    archive = HyperArch.HyperArchive(mlist)
    try:

    You need to change that to

    init_or_update = ' -i'

    because in your rundig the 'incremental' option is '-i', not '-u'.

    Hello,
    I made the modifications you suggested.
    Now when I run nightly_htdig on a list, I get an error back that "I" is an
    invalid option for htfuzzy. I uncommented that line in the rundig script.
    Any ideas?
    If it isn't critical, I can just re-comment that line.



    I'm sorry. I didn't keep the rundig you sent me so I can't be sure, but
    it appears that RedHat's modified rundig may be broken in some way.


    On the other hand, if in making the mod to nightly_htdig you have


             init_or_update = ' -I'


    that is the problem. it needs to be lower case ' -i'.


    If that doesn't explain it, you can send me the rundig again and I'll
    look further.


    Whether or not you want the uncommented


    $BINDIR/htfuzzy $opts soundex metaphone


    line is up to you. What this does is enable the search to match
    alternate spellings of the search words that 'sound alike'.


    However, even if you re-comment that line, there may be other problems
    even if it doesn't complain.

    Hi,
    I finally got htdig to compile from source. So, I got rid of the centos
    package and am now using a vanilla build. The rundig patch applied correctly
    now.
