Hi Koji, quoting from that page: "/some/path/solr.war" is the absolute path to where ever you want to keep the Solr war using the appropriate syntax for your Operating System. In Tomcat 5.5 and later,* the war file must be stored outside of the webapps directory* for this to work. Otherwise, this entire Context element is ignored.
I need to be able to change the location of the index.
