I would like to use Solr 4.4.0 with MS SQL 2008/2012. I found some tutorials but they are either for an older version of Solr or they refer to data import handler files that don't exist in my Solr installation.
For example, this one refers to apache-solr-dataimporthandler files, but I can't find them in my installation. Where should I get them from? Or has the mechanism changed in Solr 4.4.0?
update
the data import handler returns the following error:

AFAIK I have only one place where the jar files are included, which is the tomcat lib directory. I will look for Solr alternatives that don't use Java since I have already spent almost a week getting this thing working.
