I was able to easily find requirements on versions back to Solr 1.1 - which requires Java 1.5. Java 1.3 was released in 2000, 1.4 in 2002, and 1.5 in 2004. Solr was initially created in 2004, and was open sourced in 2006, so I would expect that all the early publicly available Solr versions required Java 1.5. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_version_history#J2SE_1.3_.28May_8.2C_2000.29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Solr#History I don't think you'll be able to use *any* version of SolrJ with a 1.3 JVM. It may even be difficult to find compatible HTTP and XML libraries to roll your own client like Hoss advised. That Java version is *OLD*. Thanks, Shawn
