[htdig-dev] Stopping a dig in progress.

[Jessica B. <jes...@ya...>]

What is the best way to stop a current dig in progress
without corrupting the integrity of the db.* files?  I
find that when I send a kill level 9 (KILL) or 15
(TERM), it ruins the integrity of the data that has
already been crawled, or if I just send a level 1
(HUP), it doesn't interrupt it at all and it keeps on
crawling.

If it is corrupted from a sudden stop, is there a way
to recover what has already been crawled?  I'm using
one of the 3.2.0b4 versions on Linux.

Thanks,
Jes
