Hi Hoss,
Thank you for replying to my question, The solrconfig.xml in the example-DIH in solr download is exactly the same like the links you posted in your reply, so where is the big difference ? I think I typed a mistake in my last question, instead of saying db-data-config.xml I said solrconfig.xml. but still did not understand where that exception come from. Your helps will be appreciated.

I suggest you take a gandar at the example config set for using DIH with a database... https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/dev/branches/branch_4x/solr/example/example-DIH/solr/ https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/dev/branches/branch_4x/solr/example/example-DIH/solr/db/conf/ https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/dev/branches/branch_4x/solr/example/example-DIH/solr/db/conf/solrconfig.xml?view=markup https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/dev/branches/branch_4x/solr/example/example-DIH/solr/db/conf/db-data-config.xml?view=log ...and keep them in mind while reviewing the DIH docs... http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler -Hoss
