thanks sir, i always smile when people here are always ready for help, i am thankful to all, and yes i started learning by reading daily at least 50-60 mails to increase my knowledge gave my suggestion if i am familiar with it, people here correct me as well if i am wrong. I know it will take time but someday i will contribute as well and thanks for setup it will be quite helpful. In my office i am using solr 4.2 with tomcat right now i am stucked because i don't know how to integrate solr 4.7 with my tomcat, because the problem for me is that i am familiar with the cores architecture of solr 4.2 in which we defined the every core name as well as instanceDir but not with solr 4.7.
