Re: Problem with indexing files with spaces

Thanks for the list pointer, Brian.  I too need to apply this patch to  
index URLs with spaces in them.

However, when I download the patch and open it, I was unsure if this  
looks like an appropriate patch file because it has some e-mail  
portions in it and some of the code has a "!" at the beginning of the  
line.  I do have a development server with htdig, so I tried applying  
it there using this three step process

1) Apply  ftp://ftp.ccsf.org/htdig-patches/3.1.6/fileSpace.1
	change to htdig-3.1.6 source directory, and run
	patch -p0 < /added-specific-pathto/fileSpace.1
2) Set allow_space_in_url to true in your config file
3) and re-index

I am getting an error during step 1.  I think my problem is that I  
installed an RPM of htdig which is already compiled.  Do I have to  
apply this patch before compiling?  I am unsure where the "htdig-3.1.6  
source directory" is.  When I do a "Locate" command to find  
"htdig-3.1.6" I only see the htdig docs directory.     I changed to the  
directory /usr/bin where the htdig, htnotify, htdump, htfuzzy, etc. is  
located.  When I ran the command patch -p0 <  
/added-specific-pathto/fileSpace.1    I get a prompt to enter the
File to patch:

And that's where I'm stuck.  If I do a locate for URL.cc I don't get  
any results.

Thanks,
Brian L.
