If searching of your lists is working from the list TOC page (the form
added by the Mailman-htdig integration patch) how were the search indexes
built if cron did not run nightly_htdig script. Did you run it
nightly_htdig by hand from the command line or what.

what do you get out when you enter the following command (as root)?
crontab -u mailman -l
does the crontab contain a line that looks like this?
19 2 * * * /usr/bin/python -S /home/mailman/cron/nightly_htdig
are the zipped versions of the list archives being updated by the following
crontab entry?
27 3 * * * /usr/bin/python -S /home/mailman/cron/nightly_gzip
