Thanks Shawn Yup - I created a /lib inside my $SOLR_HOME directory (which by default was /var/solr/data)
I put the hon_lucene..... jar file in there and rebooted - same errors about class not found. Tried again in what looked like the next most obvious spot server/solr-webapp/webapp/WEB-INF/lib Same result... Class not found. I'll go back and triple check.... Joe - is that recommendation of using the Blob Store API an absolute? I know my IT guys are going to want to have the signing - it would be a lot easier to just drop in jars we care about without worrying about the signing. Yes - I'm being lazy, I know. <grin> Thanks all!
