Having trouble setting up xindice

[Cheong Chung Onn]

Hi all,

I am a newbie, i downloaded xindice v 1.1b3 (jar version and even the cvs version) tried almost everything but doesnt seems to be able to get xindice going. I tried checking the archives and read through FAQs, Admin, User and Developer Guides but didn't help.

I would appreciate if any one can help to shed some light to get me going. Thanks in advance.

My environment - OSX 10.3.2, java ver 1.4.2_03, btw i had set up -Djava.endorsed.dirs=$XINDICE_HOME/java/lib

Below are what i have done and the problems i encountered

Case #1 (downloaded xindice v1.1b3-jar)
=======
+ I tried to follow the setup instructions in xindice developer guide - Preparing the Server For the Examples
xindice lc -c /db
but i go the following error - ERROR : /users/chungonn/Desktop/xindice-1.1b3-jar/config/commands.xml (No such file or directory)

I realized that the config directory is missing and i managed to a copy of "config" from the xindice-src but i encountered a new problem!

Case #2 (download xindice-src and compile)
=======
+ after i have downloaded the src, i ran the "ant" to build xindice, but once again i encountered a truckload of warning messages about deprecated classes, below is a sample of the warning message..
