Thanks! I guess I should have asked on-list BEFORE wasting 4 hours
fighting with it myself, but I was trying to be a good user and do my
homework! Oh well.
Off to the logging instructions, hope I can figure them out -- if you
could update the tomcat instructions with the simplest possible way to
get deploy in Tomcat to work, that'd def be helpful!

I am trying to get Solr installed in Tomcat, and having trouble.
When I start up tomcat, I get in the Tomcat log:
INFO: Deploying web application archive solr.war
May 29, 2013 3:59:40 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Error filterStart
May 29, 2013 3:59:40 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SEVERE: Context [/solr] startup failed due to previous errors
I've tried to google for advice on this -- mostly what I found was
suggestions for how to turn up logging to get more info
In a cruel twist of fate, it is actually logging changes that are
preventing Solr from starting. The required steps for deploying 4.3
changed. I will update the wiki page about tomcat when I'm not on a train.
See this page for additional instructions, specifically the section about
deploying on containers other than jetty:

Thanks,
