Hello folks,

I recently noticed that my version of the KDE Help Center (KDE-3.2.2 on Slackware-current) is missing the "Search" tab. htdig's installed but I'm not sure what to tell the Help Center's configuration dialog in order to get my Search tab back.

Which 'Index-Folder' shall I use? And what are the appropriate commands for the 'HTML Search' dialog? For now I have entered '/opt/www/htdig/bin/htsearch' as the program location for htsearch and '/opt/www/htdig/bin/htdig' as the program location for the 'Indexer'. My htdig database resides in '/opt/www/htdig/db/' but I'm not sure if the Help Center expects some other locations..

I've tried generating a search index as user and as root - it doesn't seem to matter - it won't work.. running 'khc_indexbuilder' in konsole won't change this situation..

Any thoughts?

Regards,
Tobias

Yes,
I get "The folder doesn't exist. Unable to create index.", too..

Hm.. I just checked the situation on another computer running SUSE-9.1 - it seems SUSE's index folder is /var/cache/susehelp . But this folder only contains SUSE and software related material *dbs, wordlists and config files - there's nothing specific to KDE. Maybe the 'vanilla' KDE documentation doesn't come with any htdig features.. I don't know for sure. kcontrol _has_ a search tab.

Well - it's not a big issue, but I was wondering.
