Re: Tomcat JNDI Settings
Hi Hoss, I just wanted to follow up to the list on this one...I could never get the JNDI settings to work with Tomcat. I went to Jetty and everything is working quite nicely.

: I just wanted to follow up to the list on this one...I could never get : the JNDI settings to work with Tomcat. I went to Jetty and everything is I'm not sure what to tell you. I've been preping my ApacheCon demo for next week using Tomcat and JNDI and i haven't had any problems i've got a few helper scripts that save me typing when i set it up (they use sh -x to echo the shell commands they execute when they run), but here's everything i do just so you can see what i've got going on ... it might help you figure out what's not working about your setup.

Re: Tomcat JNDI Settings
Hi Chris, Thanks for getting back to me. The folder /var/lib/tomcat5/solr/home exists as does /var/lib/tomcat5/solr/home/conf/solrconfig.xml. It's basically a copy of the files from examples folder at this point. I put war files in /var/lib/tomcat5/webapps, so I have the apache-solr-1.2.0.war file outside of the webapps folder. Are there any special permissions these files need? I have them owned by the tomcat user.
