Comment:

 Xapian has no fixed location for storing its databases; applications (such
 as Chamilo) that use Xapian specify where the database should live on
 disk. There are three things I'd look for:

  * where is Chamilo documented as putting its database?
 (https://github.com/chamilo/chamilo-
 lms/blob/720288ad0de934a4e7da9c8a7bae7be7124c39ce/main/inc/lib/search/xapian/XapianIndexer.class.php#L79)
  * is there a separate command for creating the database before running
 Chamilo?
  * are the Unix permissions correct on the parent directory to allow for
 the database to be created?

 This is in any case an issue to do with Chamilo (either documentation or a
 bug at their end) rather than Xapian.
