Re: Please help me run Example1

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
