I'm getting the following error message while I index one of my databases:

100 Attempt to re-free free block at 0x0 in KDBF file /[directory]/[database name]/html.blb

What does this mean?

Which version of Webinator are you using? It is possible that this might occur if you are using the -unique option, and it comes across a duplicate page.

I'm using version 2.5.

I did have the unique option turned on, so are you saying that you get this "error" message whenever the indexer encounters a duplicate page?

It is a warning message, rather than an error. You may not get it on all duplicate pages. Are you using commercial or free Webinator. Which operating system?

I'm using free Webinator on RedHat Linux 6.2

The most recent version we have online is 2.55 dated 2000-01-28, which should eliminate those warnings.

Actually, my version is 2.55 -- I apologize for not specifying this in my previous post. When I said 2.5, I was basing it on the title page of the Webinator manual. I have just double-checked it on the server, and I have version 2.55, release: 20000120

We are in the process of getting a newer version uploaded which will not have the extra warning messages in there.

Hopefully you're not using Webinator 2.5 and gw at all at this point. What error are you getting and what version of what product are you using and what are you doing when you get the error message?
