How about we start over. The previous info shows that you have the Solr download in /tmp. I will assume that the file is still there. If it's not, then you will need to put it there again, or adjust the commands below to the new location. I'm guessing that you're trying to run the installer with default options. If that's the case, run these commands: #------ mkdir ~/newdir cd ~/newdir tar xzf /tmp/solr-7.1.0.tgz \ solr-7.1.0/bin/install_solr_service.sh \ --strip-components=2 sudo bash install_solr_service.sh /tmp/solr-7.1.0.tgz #------ There are four commands there. I have split the "tar" command into three lines that should be ready to paste directly into a shell prompt. I'm hoping that it will be properly formatted when it gets to you. If you need additional options for the install script, go ahead and add them to the end of the last command. When you're done with those commands, you can delete that "newdir" that the commands created. Thanks, Shawn
