Obviously, each Solr instance will want a different one. See: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat#Installing_Solr_instances_under_Tomca t Note that it says to create a file in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/solr-example.xml, you should replace 'solr-example' with whatever you name your webapps.
