 to get Solr running for the first time. You can then use the standard ./import-marc.sh script to index records into your test instance.
+If you want to view Solr in a web browser on your host machine, it should be port-mapped to port 4568, so you can view the admin at <nowiki>http://localhost:4568/solr</nowiki>.
+== Notes for Windows Users ==
+:!: For Windows users, the ''solr.sh'' and ''import-marc.sh'' may fail to start with a "bad interpreter" error.  This is caused by the files being on the host Windows system with DOS file encoding, despite running within the Vagrant Linux environment (via a synced folder).  To resolve this, [[https://stackoverflow.com/a/5514351|set each *.sh file's encoding to unix format]].
+:!: Windows users may also encounter errors about the inability to create symbolic links (especially when indexing MARC records). This problem is caused by permission issues related to symlink creation and can be worked around by running Vagrant from a command prompt with administrative rights. If you continue to have problems after correcting permissions, make sure you do not have an empty directory at $VUFIND_HOME/solr/vendor/.solrj -- a partially created SolrJ symlink collection can break the indexer; simply remove $VUFIND_HOME/solr/vendor/.solrj and try import again, and things should work.
 ==== Notes on File Mapping / Locations ====
-Your host machine's VuFind directory will be mounted within the Vagrant SSH session as /vagrant. Any changes you make there will affect your host machine as well (and vice versa).
+Your host machine's VuFind® directory will be mounted within the Vagrant SSH session as /vagrant. Any changes you make there will affect your host machine as well (and vice versa).
 Because Apache does not have write access to the special mounted /vagrant directory, the system is using /vufindlocal as its $VUFIND_LOCAL_DIR; these files are only accessible from within the VM. You will have to use "vagrant ssh" to log in and examine/modify them.

   * vagrant destroy - completely destroy the VM; you will have to reinstall it (see above) if you want it back.
-===== Other Options =====
-If you are on a version of VuFind older than 4.1, or if you want to explore other options, here are some other VuFind/Vagrant options:
-  * Mark A. Duffy has contributed a VuFind 2.x Vagrant configuration [[https://vagrantcloud.com/markaduffy/vufind_2x|on this page]].
-  * An alternative, puppet-configured option that runs directly off a clone of the VuFind 2.x git repository
-is available [[https://github.com/quartsize/vufind-vagrant|here]].
