Hi Thorsten...

SOrry for giving u much trouble but I need some answer regarding solr...plz
help...

Question1
I am using tomcat 5.5.23 so for JNDI setup of solr, adding solr.xml with
context fragment as below in the tomcat5.5/...catalina/localhost.

<Context docBase="C:/solr.war" debug="0" crossContext="true" >
   <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String"
value="D:/Projects/csdb/solr" override="true" />
</Context>

Is it the correct way of doing it? Or do I need to add context fragment in
the server.xml of tomcat5.5?

Question2
I am starting solr server using start.jar from another location on C:
drive...whereas my home location indicated on D: drive. Is it the root coz I
am not getting the search result?

Question3
I have added parameter as <dataDir>C:\solr\data</dataDir> in
solrconfig.xml...but the indexes are not getting stored there...indexes for
search are getting stored in the default dir of solr...any suggestions

Thanks in advance...
