Don't worry about it.

I was wondering if you may be able to help me with another problem I've run into.
My problem is with search.cgi
When I try to access it from a browser I get a blank page, I view source and it is a standard empty page no errors. Run from the command line it works perfectly and returns the html results page.

I've searched the mnogosearch.org list and posted the question and I can't find any answers. I'm wondering if it's something specific to the cobalt setup. Did you have run into this problem? What permissions have you got setup for the various files (search.htm and search.cgi)? Could it be a problem with CGI-Wrapper ?

Any help you could give me with this will be much appreciated.

Apologies for assuming you didn't check there first.

I didn't mention that I'm running version 3.1.19 of mnoGoSearch on my RaQs.
I've been running it on the RaQs for a couple of years (back when it was
known as udmsearch) and I *think* that the Alias command was in older
versions and I'm almost positive it hasn't changed in versions newer than
what I'm running (IIRC I ran into problems installing 3.2.3 a month ago and
tabled the installation), but you should check the indexer.conf-dist file
and doc/ directory of the distribution you're using for more info.  I am
using the Alias command successfully on a couple of installs on RaQs.  I'm
also using a couple of handler programs (catdoc, xls2csv, etc.) to convert
pdf, doc, xls and rtf files from external sites to text on the fly which is
very, very slick.  I'm a big fan of mnoGoSearch.
