I want to run xindice using Jetty as the server. I am working in linux and use J2sdk1.4.2 regularly. I am a serious programmer but not a systems admin or web server guy.
I downloaded recently both the bin version and the src. I got the src because it said Jetty was packaged with it. However, I did not find any directions on what to do with the packaged jetty. So, I downloaded the current Jetty. That runs OK and I know how to change the port number, but whenever I run xindice it reports: Here is proof that jetty is running: [EMAIL PROTECTED] jetty-5.1.11RC0]$ java -jar start.jar conf/main.xml 13:25:54.895 INFO [main] org.mortbay.log.LogImpl.add(LogImpl.java:109) >16> added [EMAIL PROTECTED] 13:25:54.833 INFO [main] org.mortbay.util.FileResource.<clinit>(FileResource.java:60) >11> Checking Resource aliases 13:25:55.629 INFO [main] org.mortbay.http.HttpServer.doStart(HttpServer.java:684) >10> Version Jetty/5.1.11RC0 13:25:55.772 INFO [main] org.mortbay.util.Container.start(Container.java:74) > 15> Started [EMAIL PROTECTED] 13:25:55.775 INFO [main] org.mortbay.util.Container.start(Container.java:74) > 11> Started WebApplicationContext[/xindice,/xindice] 13:25:55.779 INFO [main] org.mortbay.http.SocketListener.start(SocketListener.java:205) >11> Started SocketListener on 0.0.0.0:8888 13:25:55.779 INFO [main] org.mortbay.util.Container.start(Container.java:74) > 09> Started [EMAIL PROTECTED] Also, my browser finds it with http://127.0.0.1:8888/xindice/ It doesn't say much but I can tell the difference between getting a response and not. But, tho I have tried all the xml things in your directories and tinkered with versions in Jetty, when I try running something like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ ./xindice list_collections -c /db [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ ./xindice list_collections -c /db /home/biowolp/java/j2sdk1.4.2_06 /home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4 /home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4/classes:/home/biowolp/downloads/ind ice/xindice-1.1b4/java/lib/commons-logging-1.0.3.jar:/home/biowolp/downloads/ind ice/xindice-1.1b4/java/lib/servlet-2.3.jar:/home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindic e-1.1b4/java/lib/xalan-2.5.2.jar:/home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4/ja va/lib/xerces-2.6.0.jar:/home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4/java/lib/xm l-apis.jar:/home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4/java/lib/xmldb-api-20030 701.jar:/home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4/java/lib/xmldb-api-sdk-2003 0701.jar:/home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4/java/lib/xmldb-common-2003 0701.jar:/home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4/java/lib/xmldb-xupdate-200 40205.jar:/home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4/java/lib/xmlrpc-1.1.jar:/ home/biowolp/downloads/indice/xindice-1.1b4/dist/xindice-1.1b4.jar trying to register database XMLDB Exception 0: Cannot communicate with the server: http://127.0.0.1:8888/xindice/ If I run this, [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ ./xindice list_collections -l -c /db then I get meaningful stuff from xindice. I dont want to put you guys off, but frankly, I am amazed at how far you are from documenting how to bring this stuff up. If you have solid suggestions to help me, I suggest that they be added to the documentation too. Tom Boyle
