Changing to <dataDir> works fine with my version from 2006-05-15
Thanks for your help, this is just what I needed.

Try using the latest nightly build, and changing indexDir to dataDir:
<!-- Used to specify an alternate directory to hold all index data
other than the default ./solr/data
If replication is in use, this should match the replication
configuration

<!--
<dataDir>./solr/data</dataDir>

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.
