Solr dist - 1.4.1 java version 1.6.0_22 Windows Vista Home Premium Command Prompt to execute commands I encountered the following problem very early on during indexing stage, and even though I asked this question (through the wrong list :0|) I have been unable to resolve what it is thats going wrong. My searches to date pick up hits relating to Db problems and are of no use. I have a new dist of Solr and have made no configuration to date.
