If you tried copying JUST the .war file with any version from 4.3 on, something similar would happen. At the request of many of our more advanced users, starting in version 4.3, the war does not contain jars required for the logging in Solr to work. This makes it possible to change the logging framework without surgery on the .war file or recompiling Solr. If those jars are not available, Solr will not start. The logging jars must be placed in the container's classpath for logging to work, which has been done in the server included with Solr, placing them in the lib/ext directory of the Jetty server. With the jars you can find in lib/ext, you also need a config file for log4j ... which you can find in the example at resources/log4j.properties. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrLogging Thanks, Shawn
