Did you try setting "exe" to "./snapshooter" ? for the record, there is no "default" setting of "solr/bin" in either the code, or in the example solrconfig ... there is only a commented out example (which is clearly a bad example based on the confusion it seems to be causing and the fact that if you uncomment it, it doesn't work properly) -Hoss
