Problem getting Solr home from JNDI in Tomcat
Hi all, I'm having problems getting Solr to start on Tomcat 6.
Tomcat is installed in /opt/apache-tomcat , solr is in
/opt/apache-tomcat/webapps/solr , and my Solr home directory is /opt/solr .
My config file is in /opt/solr/conf/solrconfig.xml .
I have a Solr-specific context file in
/opt/apache-tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/solr.xml which looks like this:
<Context debug="0" crossContext="true" >
<Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String"
value="/opt/solr" override="true" />
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve"
allow="128\.40\.46\..*,127\.0\.0\.1" />
</Context>
But when I start Solr and browse to it, it tells me:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Can't find resource 'solrconfig.xml' in
classpath or 'solr/conf/', cwd=/ at

Weirdly, the exact same context file works fine on a different machine. I've
tried giving Context a docBase element (both absolute, and relative paths)
but it makes no difference -- Solr still isn't seeing the right home
directory. I also tried setting debug="1" but didn't see any more useful
info anywhere.
Any ideas? This is a total show-stopper for me as this is our production
server. (Otherwise I'd think about taking it down and hardwiring the Solr
home path into the server's context...)
Yours hopefully,
Andrew.

For the benefit of future searchers -- I tried it this way and it works
fine. Thanks again to everyone for helping.
Andrew.

Sorry -- a nightly build from about a month ago. Re. your other message, I
was sure the two machines had the same version on, but maybe not -- when I'm
back in the office tomorrow I'll upgrade them both to a fresh nightly.

Yes, it's auto-expanded from a war in webapps.
I have to admit to being a bit baffled though -- I can't find this rule
anywhere in the Tomcat docs, but I'm a beginner really and they're not the
clearest :-)

Great, I'll try it this way and see if it clears up. Is it okay to keep the
war file *inside* the Solr home directory (/opt/solr in my case) so it's all
self-contained?
Many thanks,
Andrew.

: Hi all, I'm having problems getting Solr to start on Tomcat 6.
which version of Solr?
: Tomcat is installed in /opt/apache-tomcat , solr is in
: /opt/apache-tomcat/webapps/solr , and my Solr home directory is /opt/solr .
if "solr is in /opt/apache-tomcat/webapps/solr" means that you put the
solr.war in /opt/apache-tomcat/webapps/ and tomcat expanded it into
/opt/apache-tomcat/webapps/solr then that is your problem -- tomcat isn't
even looking at your context file (it only looks at the context files to
ersolve URLs that it cant resolve looking in the webapps directory)
This is why the examples of using context files on the wiki talk about
keeping the war *outside* of the webapps directory, and using docBase in
your Context declaration...

I've added a FAQ for this...
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FAQ#What_does_.22CorruptIndexException:_Unknown_format_version.22_mean_.3F
What does "CorruptIndexException: Unknown format version" mean ?
This happens when the Lucene code in Solr used to read the index files
from disk encounters index files in a format it doesn't recognize.
The most common cause is from using a version of Solr+Lucene that is older
then the version used to create that index.

That worked, thanks. You're right though, it is a bit of a hack -- I'd
prefer to set the path from *outside* the app so it won't get overwritten
when I upgrade.
Now I've got a completely different error:
"org.apache.lucene.index.CorruptIndexException: Unknown format version: -9".
I think it might be time for a fresh install...
Cheers,
Andrew.

This might be a bit of a hack but i got this in the web.xml of my applicatin
and it works great.
<!-- People who want to hardcode their "Solr Home" directly into the

-->
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>solr/home</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-value>/Solr/WebRoot/WEB-INF/solr</env-entry-value>
