I am glad to see that people are actually reading documentation that is included with the release. With 5.0.0 (and probably the next few 5.x releases), Solr actually still is a war file. You can find it in server/webapps in the binary download. There are two reason we are telling everyone it's not a war file: 1) We now have very capable scripts to start and stop Solr with optimal java options, so there's no longer any need to rely on scripts packaged with a servlet container. 2) In a future 5.x release, Solr actually will become a standalone application, not a war ... preparing users in advance is a good idea. > I need some advanced features like synonyms search, stop words, wild card > search etc. It would be great, if you can provide some references to get > idea which dependencies need to add to get those features. If you don't want to simply add every dependency included in the war, then you can use the tried and true method for finding the minimum set of jars: Try to get it running. If it fails, look at the log and see which class it was unable to find. Add the relevant jar to the classpath and try again. Thanks, Shawn
