Hello,

I am having a hard time doing full text searching on my SuSE dochost. I have all the required packages installed, but when I try to fulltext search, it complains about htmerge not being run. How can I fix this?

Have you run the script /usr/sbin/suserundig to initialise the database after configuring the database in /opt/www/htdig/conf/susedig.conf? If yes, and you're still getting the message, you may be falling foul of the same error I had - lack of space in /tmp for the temporary files htdig creates when initialising the database. You can get around that by setting the envvar TMPDIR to somewhere on your disk where you have plenty of free space until after suserundig has executed. If you add -v to the end of each commandline in the suserundig script, you'll get some feedback to the console as to what is (or isn't) happening.
