GW Fails: 100 Redirect loop fetching (original) -- help!

[enrique.delgado]

Running "Webinator WWW Site Indexer Version 2.56 (Commercial)".

The re-walks have been failing for me with this error:

./gw -msd.cfg -v5 http://www.sirsidynix.com
Loading from lastrun
175 Table hosts not found in data dictionary
115 No such table: hosts in the database: /s/sirsi/WWW/searchdb/sd/

I think this line is the problem:

100 Redirect loop fetching (original)

I tried everything I know of (wiping the db doing the initial populating, tryin to re-walk, etc) to no avail. My config file looks like this:

#Configuration file for indexing http://www.sirsidynix.com
#Command: ./gw -msd.cfg http://www.sirsidynix.com
#
#handle PDF files with the purchased plugin
napplication/pdf,pdf,/s/sirsi/WWW/htdocs/webinator/bin/anytotx
#
#allow big files so PDF doesn't get truncated
z100000000
#
# set the index page to index.php
Iindex.php
#
# allow php extensions:
fphp
#
#set the database to be used:
d/s/sirsi/WWW/searchdb/sd
#
#don't include ALT text in database
N

Can anybody help please?

That page requires cookies and keeps redirecting you to the index.php page trying to give one. gw doesn't support cookies. You need a newer version of webinator (4 or later) with the web based admin interface.

Thanks for the tip! I'll see if I can fix this. Thanks again

Hi Mark, thanks for your help. I made it so that the site degrades gracefully if you don't support cookies or cookies are disabled. Hence, webinator is able to crawl the site once again.

Thanks!
