Moving existing Solr to new machine

G'Day. Apologies in advance, I have never seen or heard of Solr until a few weeks ago! I am writing a new system. To be able to do so I need to run the old system in a VM so I can see the fine points of the application functionality.

I have the database running, easy. I have Solr 5.5.4 installed and running. I know that is old but I was informed that the application relies on that vintage of Solr. I created a core name 'collation1' as instructed and the Solr management page sees it OK.

I was given two files, 

schema.xml
solrconfig.xml

Looking at the schema it describes stuff in the application database so I dig what it is doing. I read all of the 5.5 documentation and googled and googled, and I can't find out what to do with these files! The 5.5 PDF doco dropped a hint that these files SHOULD live in

/var/solr/data/collation1/conf

however, if I copy the files there I get a big ugly bright red ERROR LOADING .... screen and it appears VERY broken.

Anyone have a hint for me?

Cheers, MArk.

There's a reference somewhere in your schema to mapping-ISOLatin1Accent.txt. This file does not exist, which means that the schema is unable to load - since it doesn't know what to do when you're depending on a file that doesn't exist.

Either remove the field type using mapping-ISOLatin1Accent.txt, find the appropriate file (if you need the functionality) or create an empty file named the same.
