I've just downloaded a copy of NT free version of webinator. The
installation went ok. But when I tried to run the gw command to index my
Web site, I got this error message.

I ran the (gw http://olympus) command at the DOS command prompt:

Message:

175 Table html not found in data dictionary
115 No such table: html
000 SQLPrepare() failed with -1
Sorry, you have reached the maximum number of HTML pages allowed

C:\InetPub\wwwroot\webinator\bin>

If anyone on the list can give me help/tips/suggestions I'd appreciate it
very much.

Thanks

It sounds as if the database was not created correctly. This does not
normally occur, but you should have seen a message indicating the
reason the database was not created correctly when you ran gw the first
time. You should remove the database directory and contents, and then
run "gw -d- create", which will create the database ready to walk.

After initially installing webinator onto an NT box, is the next step to run gw from DOS as in your example?

Yes. After the initial install the next step is to run gw from the command line or DOS prompt. A typical command line is:

gw -d- http://yourwebsite

The -d- will prevent it from asking about which database to use.
