This does not sound like any kind of standard location that the
installation script included with Solr would set up.
It does look like you're trying to run the cloud example ... which we
would very much NOT recommend for production. The FreeBSD settings
probably are not geared for running examples, but running a production
install.
Chances are that the FreeBSD port has highly customized settings and we
won't have any idea how to help without spending a huge amount of time
exploring how it's set up, which would be very challenging to do via the
mailing list.
If you want to use the FreeBSD port, your best bet is probably talking
to the people who actually created that port. It wasn't released by the
Solr project.
Or you could go to the Solr web page and download the official release
instead of using that port, and then we could definitely help you.
Thanks,
