Klemens,
Thanks for the tip. However, in my installation (I used the tomcat default
windows installation shield), I found the 'system.xml' is actually in
directory (tomcat unzipped the Xindice.war file there)
c:/.../tomcatdir/webapps/Xindice/WEB-INF
Anyway, after alerting the line
<root-collection dbroot="./db/" name="db">
to
<root-collection dbroot="C:/APPS/Tomcat 4.1/db/" name="db">
, the location of database can be specified properly.
To rationalize what happened before, I guess the reason is that I was using
the "start tomcat" shortcut (created by the installation program), which is
located in
C:\Documents and Settings\Lixin Meng\Start Menu\Programs\Apache Tomcat
JRE or tomcat thought that's the working directory. Since the configuration
say './db/', it caused the confusion.
Again, thanks for helping me out, and I hope above explanation can provide
some hints to whoever can write a better FAQ.

Subject: AW: database root directory of Xindice 1.1b
In my case the db is used from dbroot="c:/programme/xindice1.1/db/"
I configured this in
c:/.../tomcatdir/work/standalone/localhost/xindice/system.xml.

Betreff: database root directory of Xindice 1.1b
When I run Xindice 1.1b with Tomcat 4.1.12, in Tomcate console, it
shows:
---------------
Nov 23, 2002 3:10:23 PM org.apache.xindice.core.Database setConfig
INFO: Database points to C:\apps\Tomcat 4.1\.\db
Nov 23, 2002 3:10:24 PM org.apache.xindice.server.XindiceServlet init
---------------
However, I found the '\db' is actually created under directory:
------------
C:\Documents and Settings\Lixin Meng\Start Menu\Programs\Apache Tomcat
4.1\
------------
This is the directory where all those Windows menus goes (i.e. [Starts]
-> [Programs] -> [Apache Tomcat 4.1].
Any idea how can change it to somewhere else?
