Error loading ICUTokenizerFactory

[Tomek Rej <to...@roamz.com>]

Hi everyone

I'm getting an exception when trying to use the solr.ICUTokenizerFactory:
   SEVERE: org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Error loading class
'solr.ICUTokenizerFactory'

The code in the schema.xml that isn't working is:
    <fieldType name="text_en_splitting" class="solr.TextField"
positionIncrementGap="100" autoGeneratePhraseQueries="true">
    <analyzer type="index">
      <tokenizer class="solr.ICUTokenizerFactory"/>
    </analyzer>

I copied the jar files found in contrib/analysis-extras/lib and
contrib/analysis-extras/lucene-lib/lucene-libs to the solr/lib directory of
my project,
which is what I assume you have to do from reading some posts I found
online. However I must be doing something wrong as I'm getting the error
even with the jar files in my solr/lib directory.

When the above didn't work I tried changing solrconfig.xml to add extra lib
directives:
<lib dir="../../contrib/analysis-extras/lib" />
<lib dir="../../contrib/analysis-extras/lucene-libs" />

When I read the output on the command line it said the class loader was able
to load the jar files but I still got the same error loading class
'solr.ICUTokenizerFactory'


Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks for your help.

Looks like another person had the same problem as me.
The solution to the issue can be found here:
http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Solr-3-1-ICU-filters-error-loading-class-td2835323.html

Perhaps the person in charge of the documentation could add apache-solr
-analysis-extras-X.Y.jar as a requirement.
