Setting Up the Registry Server

Setting Up the Registry Server

Before you can use the Java WSDP Registry Server, you must start both Tomcat and the Xindice database.

Instructions for starting and stopping Tomcat are in Starting Tomcat (page 62).

Go to the bin directory of your Java WSDP installation (or place this directory in your PATH). To start the Xindice database, use the command

xindice-start       (on a Microsoft Windows system) 
xindice-start.sh    (on a UNIX system)

This command runs in the background. The database may take several seconds to start up.

To stop the database, use the command

xindice-stop       (on a Microsoft Windows system) 
xindice-stop.sh    (on a UNIX system)
