OK I found in the tomcat documentation that I not only have to drop the war file into webapps but also have to delete the expanded version of the war that tomcat makes. Now tomcat doesn't find the velocity response writer which I seem to recall seeing some note about. I'll try to find that again. Thanks for the help? Oh well...

I have an existing solr 1.4 setup which is well configured. I want to upgrade to the latest solr release, and after reading release notes, the wiki, etc, I concluded the correct path would be to not change any config items and just replace the solr.war file in tomcats webapps folder with the new one and then start tomcat back up. This worked fine, solr came up. The problem is that on the solr info page it still says that I am running solr 1.4 even after several restarts and even a server reboot. Am I missing something? Info says this though there is no solr 1.4 war file anywhere under tomcat root: Solr Specification Version: 1.4.0.2009.12.10.10.34.34 Solr Implementation Version: 1.4 exported - sam - 2009-12-10 10:34:34 Lucene Specification Version: 2.9.1 Lucene Implementation Version: 2.9.1 exported - 2009-12-10 10:32:14 Current Time: Thu Apr 05 12:56:12 PDT 2012 Server Start Time:Thu Apr 05 12:52:25 PDT 2012 Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Robi
