Ray,

Nutch works just fine on Windows, even if it's not the best environment for it .. Please make sure that in your outputDir you have subdirs named exactly like this:

linkdb
indexes
 (or index, if you merged indexes using bin/nutch merge command)
segments

which contain the stuff that you crawled & parsed & indexed.

These are "magic" names that the searcher tries to use - especially if it can't find either "indexes" or "index" things won't work. Check the Tomcat/Jetty logs - NutchBean should print an info there that says what directory it tries to use for indexes.
