There's a simple servlet to allow running under tomcat in org.apache.xindice.server.XindiceServlet. It still needs much work, but is a start. You can build Xindice.war by typing ant war after compiling the database. Then you should just be able to drop it in the webapps directory of a servlet engine. If you use Tomcat it will create the database in the root of the tomcat installation, I'll make it configurable shortly.
I also changed the command line tools so that you can use a local database instead of having to go over the network, it's not configurable yet so it will look for the database in the same directory where you run the command.
You provide the -l option to run locally. This means you can work with Xindice without ever setting it up as a server, just don't use the command line tools and another application at the same time on the same database.
BTW, at this point I'd consider CVS to be pretty unstable.
