: does the System.getProperty function read from the environment variables
System.getProperty only loads java sysntem properties, which are usually
set using the -D command line option on the java command line
There may be some Java Runtime Environments that load OS environment
variables for you, but i don't know of any.
An easy way to tell if your JRE is contains the variable you want (so that
Solr can see it) is too start up solar, and then click the "Java
Properties" link on the admin page...
http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/get-properties.jsp
...if solr.solr.home isn't listed on that page, then Solr can't see it.
