I just installed Sphider to test it out but can not get the site indexed. The indexing runs but returns with "Connection timed out NOHOST". There are not spaces in my url (as searched in this forum), but I am using an IP address only at this point (Ex: [111.111.111.111]). Could an IP address usage create this problem? I am running sphider on the same server/domain that I am trying to index.

It's due to the amount of connections i allow.
To fix my issue i just remove the blocked ip that belongs to the site in question, and add it to a whitelist.
Perhaps this is the issue in some peoples case.]]> cladiron Sphider Support Sat, 02 Jun 2012 06:39:33 +0300 http://www.sphider.eu/forum/read.php?2,8324,9487#msg-9487 http://www.sphider.eu/forum/read.php?2,8324,9487#msg-9487 If you want to use sphider to search your local machine:

Note well that sphider uses PHP's fsockopen() to access web pages.

This function does NOT recognize "localhost" as a replacement for "127.0.0.1".

So if you want to run sphider locally, you have to use the actual IP address for the local computer, and not the "localhost" alias that works with most browsers and web servers.

I am brand new to sphider, and got very discouraged when I couldn't use it to search my own local files (most of which are in the DocumentRoot of my Apache server). But when I made this change to the URLs in the admin section of sphider, I got very nice results. I was going to create my own search app, but now I think I will see what sphider can do first.]]> l_e_cox Sphider Support Sat, 02 Jun 2012 04:58:40 +0300 http://www.sphider.eu/forum/read.php?2,8324,8591#msg-8591 http://www.sphider.eu/forum/read.php?2,8324,8591#msg-8591 Error:Access denied for user 'vhostswww'@'localhost' (using password: NO) when i give my server service provider ip address
