Re: Please help me run Example1

Yeah the addressbook example is webapp.

Once Xindice is running inside tomcat you will beable to access it from 
simple java code but the addressbook is just a jsp example. If you have 
the code that your having trouble getting to work post to the list and I 
can take a look.
