It sounds like you upgraded your install from 5.2.1 to 5.3.0 by copying things into the same directory, and when you started it, the solr.war from 5.2.1 was expanded, overwriting the 5.3.0 webapp. Solr 5.3.0 does not include a .war file ... the webapp comes pre-expanded, with a different context fragment file to use the webapp directly. If the context fragment (in server/contexts) points to a .war file from a previous version, this might happen. Exactly how to fix your install will depend on exactly what was done for the upgrade ... you might be better off installing the new version into a separate directory and switching from one to the other. You're on Windows, so you don't have the install script as an option, which would have taken care of this problem by installing into a separate directory. Thanks, Shawn
