[htdig] truncated search results assistance

[Jignesh P. <jp...@ha...>]

Hello,

Has anyone experienced incomplete search results when running htdig on
Red Hat 7.2 Enterprise Linux?  I'm receiving incomplete or truncated
search results when calling the htsearch CGI from the *command line* or
a browser.  The file size of the search results are usually a little
larger than 8k (8,165bytes, 8,174bytes, or 8,219bytes), although there
have been times when the results have been as large as 12k
(12,261bytes).  This behavior is manifested in multiple versions of
htdig as well.  htdig version 3.2.0b4-20030406 is currently installed
and experiencing errors, this is after seeing identical incomplete
search errors with the newer htdig version 3.2.0b6-20041114.  The
htdig.conf file uses all of the default values, save for the following
exceptions:

start_url:            http://refocus.hap.org/bam/ 
maintainer:           web...@ha... 
template_map: Long long /appl/htdig/share/htdig/long.html
template_name: long

For testing purposes, the default long templates are used without
additional modifications.  I'm attaching the results of a typical
search, note that only items 1-8 are displayed.  In addition to an
incomplete item 8, there is also no item 9, 10, or the related
navigation buttons (button1.gif through button3.gif and buttonr.gif)
based on 33 matches.

We run htdig on our Solaris web servers with identical configurations
without any issues.  Here's the typical command that was run on both
versions of the htdig on the Red Hat 7.2 Enterprise Linux box (this is
also the identical command used within our Solaris servers):

CXXFLAGS=-Wno-deprecated CPPFLAGS=-Wno-deprecated ./configure
--with-zlib=/usr/bin --disable-shared --prefix=/appl/htdig
--with-cgi-bin-dir=/appl/www/focus/cgi-bin
--with-image-dir=/appl/www/focus/common/images
--with-search-dir=/appl/www/focus
--with-image-url-prefix=/common/images

Full installation details are listed in the attached log file.

Could you take a look at the following screen shots as well as
installation details and provide some direction?  Any insight is most
welcome.

Thanks,
