If you use the service installation script on a UNIX or UNIX-like operating system, Solr is installed in a different location than its data by default. The program defaults to /opt/solr and the data to /var/solr. I strongly recommend using a free operating system and the service install script. The service install script has a number of options that let you customize many aspects of the installation. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Taking+Solr+to+Production At this time, there is no official way to automate installation on Windows. That may come in the future ... but Windows is fairly low priority here. If you are starting manually with the bin/solr script, there is a commandline option to start with a different solr home, which would let you put the data anywhere you want. Thanks, Shawn
