Hi, I'm using Lucene2.3.2, and no problem so far with Windows. One issue to look at would be, whether your Index directory has the permission to write. Probably, your Index folder is Read_only.

Could you provide the details of exception and also the System.out messages printed by the application. Index folder will be created in the current directory. When you execute java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexFiles <root directory>, the list of files available in the root directory will get indexed. In your case it is "E:\prabina\lucene-2.4demo\src" I have tried the following and it worked. D:\Program Files\lucene-2.4.0>java -cp "lucene-demos-2.4.0.jar;lucene-core-2.4.0.jar" org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexFiles "D:\Program Files\lucene-2.4.0\src" Regards Ganesh ----- Original Message ----- From: "prabina pattanayak" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <java-user@lucene.apache.org>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2008 10:42 AM Subject: I am not able to run Lucene 2.4 Demo Hi All, i am a beginner to Lucene. and i am trying to use Lucene 2.4. when i have set lucene-core-2.4.0.jar & lucene-demos-2.4.0.jar in my CLASSPATH. and trying to run: java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexFiles E:\prabina\lucene-2.4demo\src it shows the error: caught a class java.io.FileNotFoundException with message: no segments* file found in [EMAIL PROTECTED]:\prabina\lucene-2.4demo\index: files: but it creates the index folder in my current directory. but the index folder is empty. no segments files are there. plz, help me out from this problem ASAP.
