In some cases, your JAVA_HOME environment variable may not point to the version SOLR demands. For example, my development environment demands JDK 6, where as SOLR 5,x requires JDK 1.7 and above.
SOLR provides its own JAVA_HOME environment variable SOLR_JAVA_HOME. Set this variable to the JDK version you need to and you are all set.
In Windows, use the Control Panel->Environment Variables section to set the SOLR_JAVA_HOME.
Then run solr start -p <port-number>, usually, <port-number> = 8983.
That is all.
