I am just diving into using eclipse with tomcat and have generated a
simple web app. The first thing I did was to add an index.jsp to the
WebContent and add it to the server and publish it. That worked, then I
added a servlet using New->Other->Web->Servlet. That didn't.
It uses the Xapian java bindings jar file which I put in
..../WebContent/WEB-INF/lib and then went into the project properties for
the JXSearch project. I added the jar as a "Add Jars" button on the
libraries tab in the Java Build Path of the properties screen. That
seemed to go OK. It found the file and it is listed when I bring up
that tab again.
I'm getting a couple of error messages displayed on the browser, the
last being:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.xapian.Query
org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(Webap pClassLoader.java:1362)
org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(Webap pClassLoader.java:1208)
(truncated)
The full output of the error can be viewed at
http://fayettedigital.com/err.html.
The last line of that output says, "note The full stack trace of the
root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/5.5 logs." but I can't find
any log files for Tomcat. I've done quite a bit of Tomcat development
in the past and am familiar with a traditional Tomcat install but I
can't figure out where anything is on the Eclipse install. The
$TOMCAT_HOME/logs directory is empty.
If there is more info somewhere I'd sure like to figure out where it is
and if anyone has any idea why it isn't finding or using the jar file,
that would be nice too. Oh here's part of the jar output listing
contents of the xapian jar file:
jar -tf xapian_jni.jar
META-INF/
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
org/xapian/Database.class
org/xapian/Document.class
org/xapian/Enquire.class
org/xapian/ESet.class
org/xapian/ESetIterator.class
org/xapian/ExpandDecider.class
org/xapian/MatchDecider.class
org/xapian/MSet.class
org/xapian/MSetIterator.class
org/xapian/PositionIterator.class
org/xapian/Query.class
org/xapian/RSet.class
org/xapian/Stem.class
....
org.xapian.Query is surely there.
Thanks,
Jim.

Thanks, I couldn't figure out which group was better.
Jim.
