SLES Apache Solr start.jar, Unable to access jarfile

Question

I'm having some problems with starting the Apache Solr Search.

After installing java 7 on my SLES 11 64 Bit Server, I unpacked solr 3.6.1 to /srv/apache-solr-3.6.0/

After this i wanted to start the software, but when i tried:

java -jar start.jar

the subfolder: /srv/apache-solr-3.6.0/solr/example/

I recieve the following error:

Error: Unable to access jarfile start.jar

? :-/

You probably downloaded the source version, which doesn't include the start.jar file, try this one: http://apache.mirrors.tds.net/lucene/solr/3.6.0/apache-solr-3.6.0.tgz
