	Indeed, when I follow the procedure it is working fine ...
	I created an index with following statement:
		java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexHTML -create
"E:/Java/lucene-1.4.2/docs"
		default index-dir: index
		all references absolute
	Why can't I search an index of files somewhere on the harddisk, in
other words why=20
	should the 'docs' folder in de webapps/luceneweb folder ?

	Thnx
	Willy

It's a known issue that the Lucene web demo is quite shabby.

I created detailed instructions for running it as an appendix to Lucene=20
in Action.  I'm pasting the relevant sections below:


Running the web application demo The web demo is slightly involved to=20
set up and run properly.
You need a web container; our instructions are for Tomcat 5.  The=20
docs/demo.html documentation provides detailed instructions for setting=20
up and running the web application, but you can also follow the steps=20
provided here.  The index used by the web application differs slightly=20
from that in the command-line demo. First, it restricts itself to=20
indexing only .html, .htm, and .txt files. Each file it processes=20
(including .txt files) is parsed using a custom rudimentary HTML=20
parser. To build the index initially, execute IndexHTML:

java -cp lucene-1.4.2.jar;lucene-demos-1.4.2.jar   =20
org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexHTML -create -index webindex docs

...
adding docs/resources.html
adding docs/systemproperties.html
adding docs/whoweare.html
Optimizing index... 7220 total milliseconds

The -index webindex switch sets the location of the index directory. In=20
a moment, you=92ll need the full path to this directory to configure the =

web application. The final docs argument to IndexHTML is the directory=20
tree to index. The =96create switch creates an index from scratch. =
Remove=20
this switch to update the index with files that have been added or=20
changed since the last time the index was built.  Next, deploy=20
luceneweb.war (from the root directory of the extracted distribution)=20
into CATALINA_HOME/webapps. Start Tomcat, wait for the container to=20
complete the startup routine, and then edit=20
CATALINA_HOME/webapps/luceneweb/configuration.jsp using a text editor=20
(Tomcat should have expanded the .war file into a luceneweb directory=20
automatically). Change the value of indexLocation appropriately, as in=20
this example, specifying the absolute path to the index you built with=20
IndexHTML:

String indexLocation =3D      =20
"/dev/LuceneInAction/install/lucene-1.4.1/webindex";

Now you=92re ready to try the web application. Visit=20
http://localhost:8080/luceneweb in your web browser, and you should see=20
=93Welcome to the Lucene Template application...=94 (you can also change =

the header and footer text in configuration.jsp). If all is well with=20
your configuration, searching for Lucene-specific words such as=20
"QueryParser AND Analyzer" should list valid results based on Lucene=92s =

documentation.  You may try to click on one of the search results links=20
and receive an error. IndexHTML indexes a url field, which in this case=20
is a relative path of docs/.... To make the result links work properly,=20
copy the docs directory from the Lucene distribution to=20
CATALINA_HOME/webapps/luceneweb.   Yes, these steps are a bit more=20
manual than they should be. Rest assured that improvements to Lucene=92s =

example applications are on our to-do list as soon as we=92re finished=20
writing this book!

(sorry about the formatting of the above - it was pasted straight from=20
a PDF)
