FYI: I've had the "java -jar start.jar" Jetty instance running on my box
for over 48 hours now ... no problem loading the Admin page.

I'll check it again on monday.

Thanks, Hoss.

I actually know Jetty is quite a solid container. However, the admin page
problem is simply wired.

I hope someone could give it a try to reproduce what I have seen. so that we
can proove it's not a problem for all.

I've left the "java -jar start.jar" Solr example running for several days
before ... i can't honestly remember if i've ever checked that the admin
JSP pages still work though.

First off, don't assume that just because you had problems with the very
simplistic Jetty setup that comes in the exampl directory that means Jetty
has osmething inheriently wrong with it... that's just designed to
showcase what Solr can do without requiring people to jump through hoops
to setup a Servlet Container ... if you install Jetty from scratch you may
find it does a better job of logging errors, and it's reliability may be
higher.

There's also "JettyPlus" which you may want to look into, but Tomcat may
be a better way to go in the long run.

: see whether it has no such problem.   BTW, what's the servlet containers the
: big clients are using in production?

We use the comercial version of Resin, but that decision was not made
within my scope of knowledge/influence so i can't say that there is a
motivating technical reason why you should/shouldn't consider it compared
to tomcat, or jetty, or any other servlet container available.

No, there's no logs printed out at all. I have just tried it again. Posting
queries through the URL still works.

Have any of you tried keeping jetty running with the example solr on your
box for a few days?   If not, maybe you can try it.

This is really wired to me. Because it happens to two of my boxes; when I
bounced jetty, everything goes back to normal; the admin page works. It
might be the jetty version doesn't work well with my box/my settings. But
there's no logs or any clues at all.

There makes me worries about using jetty as the server, I'll try tomcat and
see whether it has no such problem.   BTW, what's the servlet containers the
big clients are using in production?
