Hi, Glad that I could helkp you.
We also found that the db seems to be created in c:/Windows/system32 if we did not modify the system.xml file specified and start tomcat as a service.

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.
