configure solr
Hi,
I just downloaded solr -1.4.0 to my computer, C:\apache-solr-1.4.0.
1. I followed the instruction to run the sample, java -jar
start.jar at C:\apache-solr-1.4.0\example
And then go to http://localhost:8983/solr/admin, however, I got
HTTP ERROR: 404
NOT_FOUND
RequestURI=/solr/admin
Powered by jetty:// <http://jetty.mortbay.org>
Did I miss something?
2. Since I can't get sample run, I tried to run it on tomcat
server(5.5) directly as
a. Copy/paste apache-solr-1.4.0.war to C:\Tomcat 5.5\webapps,
b. Go to http://localhost:8080/apache-solr-1.4.0/
The error message is" HTTP Status 500 - Severe errors in solr
configuration.."
3. How to configure it on tomcat server?
Your help is appreciated very much as always,
Jill

I got it running. -Dsolr.solr.home=c:\web\solr is needed.
Thanks all for the help,
Jill

Hi
1. Issue with jetty:
When you start the jetty server by running start.jar, just look at the
logs
to verify whether jetty has started successfully or not. At times, the
port
you are using to start jetty(in your case 8983) could be used by some
other
apps, which can cause issues in start up.
2. Details are provided step by step in the wiki as mentioned by eric:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat
But I hope following points can be of some help in debugging issues with
Tomcat installation:
:: Configure Tomcat to recognise the solr home directory you created, by
adding the Java Option -Dsolr.solr.home=c:\web\solr
:: Also, you can easily debug the root cause of problem by looking into
catalina.out file under logs folder of your tomcat installation.
Thanks

Re: configure solr
Posted by Joel Nylund <jn...@yahoo.com>.
for #1, under example, is there a webapps folder, does it contain
solr.war ? are there any errors in your startup log for jetty, does it
say anything about setting up solr, and solr home etc.

Re: configure solr

For the second question, do the instructions here help?
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat
I suspect your SOLR instance doesn't know where to find the SOLR
config files. So a severe error, indeed. It can't find them at all <G>.
WARNING: I'm *really* not a tomcat expert, and the instructions
at the URL are for Tomcat 6x. But they might give you a clue if
you're reasonable tomcat-savvy.
