hi Adeel, I have use solr with maven since 2011,and my dependency is not solr but solr-core and some other dependencies . therefore,my project structure is just like unpack the solr.war file with out the dir 'WEB-INF/lib'.
So I can write some code work with solr ,e.g. a listener set up system properties 'solr.solr.home' to the right path before solr is lunch.Even set up some properties for zookeeper in solr 4.2.1. You said your solr home's source path is 'src/main/resources/solr-dev/',that means the solr home is 'WEB-INF/classes/solr-dev' at the runtime.Then just use ClassLoader.getResource() in a ServletContextListener to get the absolute path of solr home ,just like this: private static final String SOLR_HOME_PROP_NAME = "solr.solr.home"; …………. try { URL url = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("/solr-dev"); if (url != null) { File file = new File(url.toURI()); if (file.exists()) { System.setProperty(SOLR_HOME_PROP_NAME,file.getCanonicalPath()); logger.info(" Set /solr/home to system properties,key:{}, value:{}",SOLR_HOME_PROP_NAME,file.getCanonicalPath()); } else{ logger.error("Resouce url '/solr' is not exists"); } } else{ logger.error("Can not locate resource url '/solr'"); } } catch (Exception e) { logger.error(e.getMessage(), e); } I wish this could help,best regards.
