@steve:
Your suggestion
<filter class="solr.analysis.GermanStemFilterFactory"/>
didn't work either. But anyway, the snowball porter filter worked.
@rachel:
As I already posted, I got the following error
org.apache.solr.core.SolrException: Error loading class '...'
I use Solr 1.2

thanks for your hint. I've already tried this [...]
Did it work?
I wonder, whether this leads to the same or a different result.
If the latter, what is the difference between the stemmer and
the snowball variant?
Here is a report on the algorithm used by Lucene's GermanStemmer, which you
were initially attempting to use:

And here is a description of the Snowball German stemming algorithm:

Also, if you want to make the GermanStemmer work, have you tried the following?:
<filter class="solr.analysis.GermanStemFilterFactory"/>
