I'm referring to the available versions of the JIRA issue tracker. It contains
a lot of subversions, but only 6.5 and not 6.5.1.

The issue is indeed if `JAVA_HOME` is set to OpenJDK 9, i.e. `env
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64/ bin/solr start` (on Ubuntu 17.04
amd64). It'd be nice to add that as helpful verbose feedback so that the
application is usable without a search engine. There's imo no reason why
`bin/solr start` should succeed if the application then doesn't work.

Agreed. I think with the update to the request to improve the feedback and
intuitive use, it's an acceptable report, now, and the issues posted on
stackoverflow.com confirm that there's an issue.

> After downloading Solr 6.5.1. standalone zip archive, extracting it into
