Re: Trouble Implementing Extracting Request Handler
org/apache/solr/util/plugin/SolrCoreAware in the stack trace refers to an interface in the main Solr jar. I think this means that putting all of the libs in apache-tomcat-6.0.20/lib is a mistake: the classloader finds ExtractingRequestHandler in apache-tomcat-6.0.20/lib/apache-solr-cell-1.4.1-dev.jar, but that it wants the above interface. The main Solr jar is not available somehow. Since the solr-cell jar is in multiple places, we don't know exactly how Tomcat finds it. I suggest that you go back to a clean, empty Tomcat, and the original Solr distribution. Copy the solr war file to the right directory in Tomcat. Get Solr talking to your solr/ directory (-Dsolr.solr.home=path). Now, check if the directives in the solrconfig.xml are right.

Re: Trouble Implementing Extracting Request Handler
Lance, I tried that but no luck. Just in case the relative paths were causing a problem, I also tried using absolute paths but neither seemed to help. First, I tried adding ** as the full directory so it would hopefully include everything. When that didn't work, I tried adding paths directly to the two Tika jar files in the Lib directory like this: * *and ** Am I including them incorrectly somehow?

Re: Trouble Implementing Extracting Request Handler
NoClassDefFoundError usually means that the class was found, but it needs other classes and those were not found. That is, Solr finds the ExtractingRequestHandler jar but cannot find the Tika jars.
