As of Solr 5.0, things have changed. Solr is still a war, but the war is embedded in the example, and the example has changed quite a lot. Run "ant example" instead of "ant dist" and then you will find that you can start solr by typing "bin/solr start" or "bin\solr start" on Windows. You might also consider typing "ant package" which will create entire .zip and .tgz packages similar to what you download from the website. Here's the beginnings of a discussion about why we are changing the packaging: https://wiki.apache.org/solr/WhyNoWar Our startup infrastructure and documentation still need work, especially in the parts describing how to take Solr to production. When I find some free time, I will be doing what I can to make this better. Thanks, Shawn
