: Tomcat seems to have changed the way to configure things, starting : with 5.5. If I follow the instruction given in the "Configuraing Solr : Home : with JNDI" section in : > http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat : : Tomat ignores it with this warning message in the log: : WARNING: A docBase /home/kuro/solr-tomcat/tomcat-5.5.23/webapps/solr.war : inside the host appBase has been specified, and will be ignored
did you try searching for that error message? the first result google gave me points to this mailing list thread... http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tomcat-dev/200512.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ...which indicates thatthis is what Tomcat says when you are refrencing the same path in two places ... probably because you have an appBase configured to server everything in the webapps directory and you've got hte explicit Context fragment. The thread suggests that you should put the war somplace else (or get rid of the appBase). : > cna you suggest any ways to make hte documentation more clear? . : : I'd simply add another sentence at the end of Simpe Example Install: : ... by default. If you would like to run startup.sh from somewhere : else, specify the solr home as described in the next section. well it's a wiki, so in the future if you think there are improvements to be made please feel free to make them, but i went ahead and added something similar to what you suggested. thanks for the feedback. -Hoss
