I copied solrconfig.xml, schema.xml, synonyms.txt, protwords.txt and
stopwords.txt into the WEB-INF/classes directory and the webapp is
reading those files.
I was thinking that if I uncommented the indexDir element in
solrconfig.xml, it would then use that directory in which to place the index
The commented-out default value is:
<indexDir>index</indexDir>
I tried changing the value to:
<indexDir>indexXXX</indexDir>
However this is being ignored; the index directory is still being
created under Tomcat's current-working-directory/solr/conf/index (In
my case I'm testing under Windows and it's C:\Tomcat 5.5\solr\data\index)
Any ideas? Thanks.

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
schema.xml files and for the index are under Tomcat's
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...
