Problems deploying a stand alone solr with alfresco 5.0d

[vfbsilva]

Folks I'm building an environment for my team. Currently I have 3 machines working as front-ends. And a machine for solr indexing. For some reason solr is not working in any of our installations. Neither the buildin instance nor the standalone I've  constructed.

I will post the relevant config data.
For the solr host machine
cat solr.xml

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><solr sharedLib="lib" persistent="true">
<cores adminPath="/admin/cores" adminHandler="org.alfresco.solr.AlfrescoCoreAdminHandler">
  <core name="archive" instanceDir="archive-SpacesStore"/>
  <core name="alfresco" instanceDir="workspace-SpacesStore"/>
</cores>
</solr>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

[root@rsgosrvv3209 solr]# cat context.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Context docBase="@@ALFRESCO_SOLR_DIR@@/apache-solr-1.4.1.war" debug="0" crossContext="true">
  <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String" value="@@ALFRESCO_SOLR_DIR@@" override="true"/>
‍‍‍‍‍

For the machine I wan't to be indexed:

### Solr indexing ###
index.subsystem.name=solr4
dir.keystore=${dir.root}/keystore
solr.port.ssl=8443
solr.port=8080
solr.host=10.31.80.242
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I did generate the proper certificates. I've followed the following guide:
http://docs.alfresco.com/4.1/tasks/solr-install-config.html

I've fiddled a lot with the files so now I surely broken something. The error log at the solr core is:

The stand alone solr I've downloaded does not shit this directory:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /usr/share/tomcat6/webapps/apache-solr-1.4.1/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF (No such file or directory)

I can provide more info but I believe there is a lot to be done so I will stop here for now.

[rjohnson]

I may be mistaken but I thought as of 4.2 Tomcat 7 was required and as of 5.0 is was SOLR 4.0 your error log is at odds with this so perhaps I am wrong.

Can someone else comment?
