java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.solr.core.Config - can't find configuration... XPath needs to load XML to configure Config. solr.xml??? -----Original Message----- From: Aaron Aberg [mailto:aaronab...@gmail.com] Sent: August-17-09 12:48 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: Cannot get solr 1.3.0 to run properly with plesk 9.2.1 on CentOS Ok. Did that. Still got that error. Here is the log (it's not adding jetty stuff anymore) Here is the log. I included the exception this time. It looks like its blowing up on something related to XPath. Do you think its having an issue with one of my xml files?
