I'd like to use Solr for a number of separate projects running on a

I understand that the default location for the solrconfig.xml and

current-working-directory/solr/conf
I am hoping I can change the default location for each webapp.
Thanks!
It's not yet possible, but see this thread:

It looks like JNDI offers the easiest portable way.
The main SolrServlet would then need to be modified to do a JNDI
lookup and base config off of that.
The way I did it is I unpacked the WAR and put my config files into
WEB-INF/classes/. Then I individually edit each app's solrconfig.xml
and specify a unique path for the index directory. This may not be
for everyone, but since I had to unpack the WAR anyway...
