4.10.1 out shortly is a good bet.
No idea about the upgrade specifically, but I would probably do some
reading of recent solrconfig.xml to get a hint of new features. Also,
schema.xml has a version number at the top. The default changed which
is controlled by that version number. So, it is something to keep in
mind.
Regards,
Alex.

Did you look at the rest of this thread? There are some comments there.
The CHANGES.txt file will guide you through each intermediate step.
There's nothing going straight from 1.4 to 4.x. You could go from 1.4 -> 3.x
then 3.x->4.x, but frankly I'd just start with a stock 4.x distro and
transfer over
only the things you've changed (like schema definitions, NOT the whole file,
see above) and re-index.
Best,
Erick

Hi,
Currently I am using SOLR 1.4.1 and want to migrate to SOLR 4.9.
Is there any manual or link for 1.4 to 4.9? Which can guide step by step on
1. solrconfig.xml changes
2. schema.xml changes
3. changes required in version 1.4.1 queries.
Thanks
Vivek

This is really helpful.

Probably go for 4.9.1. There'll be a 4.10.1 out in the not-too-distant
future that you can upgrade to if you wish. 4.9.1 -> 4.10.1 should be
quite painless.
But do _not_ copy your schema.xml and solrconfig.xml files over form
1.4 to 4.x. There are some fairly easy ways to shoot yourself in the
foot there. Take the stock distribution configuration files and copy
_parts_ of your schema.xml and solrconfig.xml you care about.
If you're using multiple cores, read about core discovery here:
https://wiki.apache.org/solr/Core%20Discovery%20(4.4%20and%20beyond)
And be very aware that you should _not_ remove any of the _field_
entries in schema.xml. In particular _version_ and _root_ should be
left alone. As well as the "id" field.
And you'll have to re-index everything; Solr 4.x will not read Solr
1.4 indexes. If that's impossible, you'll have to upgrade from 1.4 to
3.x, optimize your index, then upgrade from 3.x to 4.x, add some
documents, and optimize/force_merge again.
