Hello,

When I set up a search profile and "GO" it, I always see this error at the end. Is there a reason for this? How can I fix it?

Thanks!

If you're using version 5 dowalk scripts with a version 4 Webinator, this error could occur. Version 5 expects aspell to be installed, but version 4 did not include it. Download and install the complete version 5 from http://www.thunderstone.com/texis/site/ ... intro.html
if you're a free user, otherwise contact sales at Thunderstone about upgrading.

If you have a complete version 5 install, then aspell is failing for some other reason. Check that the named executable exists and is runnable. Check your server error logs for possible error output from aspell.
