Walk Status

This page shows the status of the latest walk for the current profile. If a walk is in progress that is the one that will be reported.

During an active walk it will indicate walk start time, starting URLs, the number of pages fetched so far, the number of errors and duplicates encountered so far, and the most recently fetched URLs. The page will automatically update every 15 seconds until the walk is complete or another page is selected. During the walk Refresh may be selected to force a refresh before the 15 second automatic refresh. Also STOP may be selected to stop the walk and abandon it.

When no walk is in progress the report will also include a list of errors and duplicates encountered.

If the last walk was abandoned, the report will include information about how far it got as well as the report from the last complete walk.

Also, as of version 4.3.5, there is a ``Make this live'' link that will allow you to accept the new walk as-is, index it for searching, and make it the live search database (deleting the currently live database). This can be useful if you ran out of disk while indexing and subsequently freed up some space. Or if you stopped a long running walk and want to use the incomplete walk. If the walk was abandoned due to an error please make sure that you resolve the problem before trying to make the new database live.
