tries to connect to port 8888 of localhost by default.
I don't know if your problems are related to this. I have recently installed Xindice 1.1b2 and Cocoon 2.1 and have them working
under Tomcat 4.1.18. For a quick fix to this I added another instance of a Coyote Connector under port 8888. This is done
in $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml
You can also use a command line option for specifying the url as xmldb:xindice://host:port/db or something like that.
I don't remember now.
Other things that have changed, the servlet name went from "Xindice" to "xindice", but I think you can configure that when you build
the sources.
The database part. Under $XINDICE_HOME/conf there's a file called server.xml
In that file you can specify the db collection, with an absolute path, or a relative one (relative from the conf directory).
Remember to use slashes '/' and not blackslashes '\' even if you are under windoze!
Ok, I have to go now. Tell me if this has solved some of your problems or not.

hi,i'm totally new to xindice and I'm trying to set it up together with my cocoon installation.cocoon is installed correctly and worked. I downloaded xindice successfully from CVS, built the *.war and deployed it. when I start tomcat I get the message "INFO: Database successfuly started" - so i guess xindice is running as expected. I can also read the "UGLY DEBUG TOOL" thing and browser the database.
now, for being able to work with it, i would like to install the command line tool. however, i haven't found any useful (or detailed enough) information on how to install it on win xp.I did everything explained at http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?HowToXindice1o1bCocoon2 (the "Installing the Xindice command line tool" part).
I have a separate xindice folder outside of the webapps, (set to %XINDICE_HOME%), added %XINDICE_HOME%/bin to the %PATH% variable ... well. that's it.if I only have bin/* , dist/*, java/lib/* and config*/ folders in there (as suggested) the "xindice" command doesn't work at all. If I copy the build folder in as well it at least gives me two action options: "start" and "debug".but how do i tell the xindice command line tool in the external %XINDICE_HOME% folder to use the database in %TOMCAT_HOME%/webapps/xindice-1.1b2/WEB_INF/db ?? the given command there doesn't work - most likely since it's explained for linux.well, sorry if that's newbie stuff ;) if i got anything wrong please correct me. any help is very much appreciated!!thanx guysstefan
