There is a POSSIBILITY that Sphider 2.4.0 may refuse to index a site from a browser window.
If instead of seeing indexing results you get something like: then the problem is likely in spider.php, lines 86-89.
Change this:
Code: Select all
} elseif (isset($_SERVER['argv']) && $_SERVER['argc'] < 2) {
commandLineHelp();
die();
}
Code: Select all
} /* elseif (isset($_SERVER['argv']) && $_SERVER['argc'] < 2) {
commandLineHelp();
die();
} */
Indexing from a command prompt should be unaffected.
