What I typically do with *all* extra jars (dataimport, mysql, ICU jars, etc) is put them into $SOLR_HOME/lib ... a directory that you will usually need to create. If the installer script is used with default options, that directory will be /var/solr/data/lib. Any jar that you place in that directory will be loaded once at Solr startup and available to all cores. The best thing about this directory is that it requires zero configuration. For 5.3 and later, loading jars into server/solr-webapp/webapp/WEB-INF/lib should also work, but then you are modifying the actual Solr install, which I normally avoid because it makes it a little bit harder to upgrade Solr. > Does anyone on this list have direct experience with getting this > plugin to work in Solr 5.x? I don't have any experience with that specific plugin, but I have successfully used other plugin jars with the lib directory mentioned above. Thanks, Shawn
