Not as far as Mailman config variables are concerned.

Check whether the directory $prefix/archives/private/<listname>/htdig 
exists and if so whether there is a file called <listname>.conf in it.

The per list htdig directory and the htdig conf file in it are created when 
the first message is sent to a list after:

1. mailman-htdig integration is installed and the archiving for the list is 
turned on.

2. after blow_away_htdig has been run in the case of archived list where 
mailman-htdig integration is installed.

No message then no htdig setup for the list and hence nothing for 
nightly_htdig to do.

As an aside, are you running nightly htdig as root user or the mailman 
user? If as root then why? Not that this should make any difference to the 
query you've raised.
