SolrCore 'collection1' is not available due to init failure

[Jim_Armstrong <ji...@gmail.com>]

noob trying to get solr rolling. localhost_8080_/solr returns a 500.
I've been googling this msg. Thinking I don't have the solr home defined. 
Need a hint. 
Using this link as a guide.
http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2013/04/install-apache-solr-tomcat/

Debian7, Oracle Java 1.7_25, Tomcat 7.42, Solr-4.5.0

Snip of the tomcat startup script: 

JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle"
JAVA_OPTS="-Xms128M -Xmx128M";
TOMCAT_USER=tomcat;
TOMCAT_PATH=/usr/share/tomcat;
SHUTDOWN_TIME=30
###### Tomcat start/stop script ######

export JAVA_HOME
export JAVA_OPTS

Liu Bo,

Changing the permissions fixed the problem.  Thank you for helping me.

Best regards, Jim

it seems a permission problem, the user that start tomcat don't have
permission to access your index folder.

try grant read and write permission to current user to your solr data
folder and restart tomcat to see what happens.
