htdig/archives out-of-sync now?

[Christopher Faylor]

Some people in the cygwin mailing list have noticed that searches are
not providing correct URLs.  I assume this is probably due to some
renumbering after last week's mysterious out-of-disk-space problem.

HP, do we need to regenerate the indexes or will this just fix itself
automatically?

Yeah, my dirty little secret is that messages archived between
2003-01-09 and 2003-01-13 may be switched around a tiny bit.  
Just a tiny bit!  And I figured it'd be all fresh and new and
not have links to it. ;)

htdig will notice that the files have changed and should reindex.

Assuming they mean archives from *this* year, then:

Other than that, they didn't happen to mention *what* URLs, what
dates, were "incorrect" and what kind of incorrectness?  No
sybjects in <URL:http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01/>
mention "archive" or "search".

The search I did was from this month.  It was for "perldoc".  The very
first match was off:

http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin/htsearch?sort=time&config=htdig&words=perldoc&restrict=%2Fml%2Fcygwin%2F2003-01%2F

(Matches Jason's description.)  Should be fixed automatically in
about 12 hours with the next update.

Which returns

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01/msg00511.html

Er... it's only 17 messages away from the correct msg?

For reference, the archive before I ran my script is still around.  cf.

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01.bak/msg00511.html

You can also see the indexes -
