OK, I spoke too soon.When you tried it on your Mac, did it create the index in the right place?
Yes, Solr created the index directory in $CATALINA_HOME/bin/solr/data/index as I expected, because I started tomcat from bin directory. (and I didn't specify -Dsolr.solr.home when I started)
Mine is still trying to create it under the webapps directory.
How does your <dataDir/> look like in solrconfig.xml?<!-- Used to specify an alternate directory to hold all index data other than the default ./data under the Solr home. If replication is in use, this should match the replication configuration. -->
<dataDir>${solr.data.dir:./solr/data}</dataDir>

Do you see any errors on Tomcat log when starting?Sussed it. As you would imagine it was the stupidest of things. And probably the *one* thing left out of my description. My solr.xml file had an illegal character at the top of the file. I hadn't noticed it until the error logs pushed me in the right direction. Thanks for the pointer. Cheers, Tim
