I am confused about what is required for running a web app. Here's what I have tried so far:
1. Running basexhttp from ./Downloads/basex If I download the .zip file from https://basex.org/download/ and run basexhttp from the /Downloads/basex subdirectory, I can see the "BaseX HTTP Services" page at localhost:8984, but when I look at localhost:8984/rest, I see no databases: <rest:databases resources="0"/> 2. Running basexhttp from a random directory If I run basexhttp from a random or empty directory, localhost:8984 returns this message: Service not found. But localhost:8984/rest lists all of my databases. 3. Running basexhttp using a copy of ./Downloads/basex/webapp I created a ./basex directory in a temporary directory and did this: cp -r /Users/xxx/Downloads/basex/webapp . I then tried running basexhttp from the new ./basex directory I created in the temporary directory. The results were the same as running from a random directory. Running from within the webapp directory does not work in either case. What am I doing wrong? Thanks! Jonathan
