Hi Lisa,

So I am assuming you downloaded http://ftp.wayne.edu/apache/xml/xindice/xml-xindice-1.1b4-jar.tar.gz

Un-tarred it into a dir lets say /tmp.

cd $XINDICE_HOME/java/examples
# this builds the addressbook example ant needs to be in your path
ant
# this copies the war to your webapps under a tomcat directory
cp ../../dist/addressbook.war $JAKARTA_HOME/webapps #
cd $JAKARTA_HOME/bin
./shutdown.sh #shutdown tomcat
./startup.sh  #restart tomecat

Open up your favorite browser point it to: http://localhost:8080/addressbook


That should get you going. Let me know if you need any more help let me know

Hello,
I am still trying to get Example1 to run (unfortunately). I have changed the port to 8080. I have also added xmlParserAPIs.jar and xercesImpl.jar to my CLASSPATH. I still am getting the same runtime error. If my URI is "xmldb:xindice:///db/addressbook" as specified in Example1, I get XML:DB Exception occurred 1 A connection to the Database Instance 'db' could not be created. Error: Connection refused: connect Else if my URI is "xmldb:xindice://localhost:8080/db/addressbook" XML:DB Exception occurred 1 A connection to the Database Instance 'db' could not be created. Error: http://localhost:8080/db_bootstrap.ior Commandline xindice and "Ugly" web browser have no problems "connecting" to /db. I really need to move past this problem (and on to the next!) Hope you can help... Thanks,

    Hi,
I am having trouble getting Example1 to work correctly. I am using
    Xindice 1.1b4 with Tomcat V5.
Example1 runs but gives me the following: XML:DB Exception occurred 1 A connection to the Database Instance
    'db' could not be created. Error: http://localhost:8888/db_bootstrap.ior
Xindice commandline works fine. And I can view /db through the "Ugly
    Browser".
I also get basically the same error when I try to run XindiceBrowser. I have read through some old xindice-users problem emails, looking
    for similar problems. I have found one saying that db_bootstrap.ior
    indicates that I am using Xindice 1.0 client and Xindice 1.1 Server.
    Since I downloaded Xindice binary in one .zip, I am not sure how I
    could have that problem. Another email said it could be a CLASSPATH
    problem. I think I now have every .jar file on the planet in my
    classpath but the email indicated xmlParserAPIs.jar and
    xercesImpl.jar (not xerces.jar), I could find neither of those.
Is there anyone out there who could help me with this problem???! Need help,
    Lisa McCabe
Thanks a bunch in advance!!
