Solr 4.3 config error in eclipse - jsf

Question

I have integrated solr 4.3 to my web app and added all dependencies. when i run my app on tomcat through Eclipse juno i get the following error.
Note: if i deploy my app.war directly to webapp dir of tomcat it seems to work fine.

Answer 1

Seems the solr.home is missing.
You can add the solr.home entry to the web.xml itself.
Uncomment the line and populate correct values :-
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>solr/home</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-value>/put/your/solr/home/here</env-entry-value>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
</env-entry>
