db_bootstrap.ior???

[Nina Juliadotter]

Forgot to mention what OS: this error was on Linux (see below). When I run it on
Windows 2000 or XP Pro, i get

XML:DB Exception occured 1 A connection to the Database instance 'db' could not
be created. Error: http://localhost:8080/db_bootstrap.ior

My source code is:

package nina;

import org.xmldb.api.base.*;
import org.xmldb.api.modules.*;
import org.xmldb.api.*;

public class Xin
{

        public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
        {
          Collection col = null;
          try
          {
                String driver = "org.apache.xindice.client.xmldb.DatabaseImpl";
                Class c = Class.forName(driver);

                Database database = (Database) c.newInstance();
                DatabaseManager.registerDatabase(database);

                String uri = "xmldb:xindice://localhost:8080/db/restaurants";
                col = DatabaseManager.getCollection(uri);

                String xpath = "/restaurant[name='TheBratwurst']";
                XPathQueryService service =
                  (XPathQueryService) col.getService("XPathQueryService", 
"1.0");
                ResourceSet resultSet = service.query(xpath);
                ResourceIterator results = resultSet.getIterator();
                while (results.hasMoreResources())
                {
                  Resource res = results.nextResource();
                  System.out.println((String) res.getContent());
                }
          }
          catch (XMLDBException e)
          {
                System.err.println("XML:DB Exception occured " + e.errorCode + 
" " + e.getMessage());
          } finally
          {
                if (col != null)
                {
                  col.close();
                }
          }
    }
}


Could anyone tell me what this mysterious db_bootstrap.ior is? I've seen a 
couple of
people asking questions on this (on the cocoon-users group), but nobody ever 
got an
answer. A google search for bootstrap.ior gives me next to nothing. Howcome 
*nobody*
has had this problem, and what is causing it??? And what am I doing wrong?

Thanks from desperate,
Nina
