Thanks, I will look into using swish.cgi with Swish::API next week.

I'm having another odd little problem. I made a little script to run swish-e 
and capture the output to a log file that I have been running from the 
commandline without incident, though it does take about 2.5 hours to spider 
my site:

#!/bin/csh

date >> & /var/log/swish-e
/usr/local/swish/swish-e/bin/swish-e -S prog -c /etc/httpd/swish/swish.conf 
 >> & /var/log/swish-e
date >> & /var/log/swish-e

However, yesterday I set it up as a cron job to run every afternoon, and 
after about an hour and a half it dies with the message "Out of memory!". 
Does anyone have any ideas about what is wrong?

Thanks!
Miranda

IIRC, search.cgi is just an example script, and it likely assumes that 
you've
got an index with the swishdescription property. That isn't a default 
property;
see the StoreDescription directive about how to set that up in your config 
file.

If you are new to Perl (iirc your previous mail said that), I would suggest
working with the swish.cgi script to get started, since it is a 
fully-featured
app rather than just an example. search.cgi is an example for folks who are
Perl-savvy and want to write their own apps.

You can still use SWISH::API with swish.cgi, iirc. Check the docs (and maybe
grok the source?) for how to turn that on.
