I guess CLI is only for a quick searches or testing, not really useful 
for xrefs afaik (might be worthwhile filing RFE)

Afaik there is no troubleshooting guide. But simply said you need to 
generate indexes and .xml file
you don't even need to modify source.war in worst case, but just deploy 
the stock one to tomcat
Then you can simply "teach" the webapplication about config with this 
"simple" command:

java -jar ${PROGDIR}/opengrok.jar -U "localhost:2424"  -R 
${DATA_ROOT}/configuration.xml -n

It should say something that configuration was updated and webapp should 
work properly ...  the only problem is that after restart of tomcat you 
have to do it again, which can be improved by just pointing out to 
proper .xml file in web.xml of the webapp (which doesn't work for you 
for some reason).

hmm, try above command (fix paths ) and let me know how it goes
