(RADIATOR) PostSearchHook() error due to strict refs?

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Tariq -

Unfortunately you cannot do what you are trying to do because of timing 
issues when the configuration file is parsed. In other words, the 
file:"...." parameter is expanded _before_ -db_dir is evaluated, so 
this will not work.

regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
