Hi Hoss, It ended up been permission issue. I moved the example folder to /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/webapps/solr/WEB-INF/ and it was able to find it. Java seem to be giving file not found even if it doesn't have permissions to access it.
I'm wondering in such cases under what user runs tomcat and what is the best practices to get permissions to external folder like "/home/datadmin/public_html/apache-solr/example" ? -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Error-Finding-solrconfig-xml-tp3408411p3441554.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
