There are two parts of solr application. Solr.war is only the web app. Then there is the example-solr which you need to download and unpack in a different folder. There are 3 ways to make the example-solr visible to the solr webapp.
Refer to these pages : http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrInstall And http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat (mainly the Configuring Solr Home with JNDI section) Hope it helps.

Use a recent nightly build as that has the dataimport related patch included.

Why do I need to set example-solr-home/solr, which is not in the /webapps directory, as home directory? Quoting Shalin Shekhar Mangar : No, the steps are as follows: 1. Download the example-solr-home.jar from the DataImportHandler wiki page 2. Extract it. You'll find a folder named "example-solr-home" and a solr.war file after extraction 3. Copy the solr.war to tomcat_home/webapps. You don't need any other solr instance. This war is self-sufficient. 4. You need to set the example-solr-home/solr folder as the solr home folder. For instructions on how to do that, look at http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat From the port number of the URL you are trying, it seems that you're using the Jetty supplied with Solr instead of Tomcat. 2008/6/9 Mihails Agafonovs : > I've placed the solr.war under the tomcat directory, restarted tomcat > to deploy the solr.war.
