To me it sounds like it's not finding solr home. I have Windows Vista and JDK 1.6.0_11 and when I run java -jar start.jar, I too get a ton of the INFO messages and one of them should read something like:INFO: solr home defaulted to 'solr/' (could not find system property or JNDI) May 13, 2009 10:45:16 PM org.apache.solr.servlet.SolrServlet init
I assume that you are running java -jar start.jar in the example/ directory and that in that example directory there is a folder called solr/? If you don't specify a JNDI or Java system property specifying solr's home then it defaults to the <current_directory>/solr (in this case example/solr). The fact that it's printing out "INFO: JNDI not configured for solr (NoInitialContextEx)" indicates that the war file is being loaded properly by JETTY. Hope that helps some Amit On Wed, May 13, 2009 at 5:36 PM, John Bennett <jbennett...@gmail.com> wrote: > I'm having difficulty getting Solr running on Vista.
