Getting many slorconfig.xml's in the example folder
Hi I am not getting why there are many solrconfig.xml file. Is that everytime when we upload a file to solr solrconfig.xml file is generated.
Re: Disappearance of post.jar from the new tutorial
Indeed! It’s always been a goal/dream of mine to have the tutorial/quickstart be more “integrated” like that. I’ve got some ideas/techniques in the works to make this smooth and clean. Coming soon (mid/late December as my plate empties for Xmas time), but by all means feel free to start posting JIRAs/patches on where you’d like it to go and we’ll sync up. Thanks, Alexandre!

Re: Disappearance of post.jar from the new tutorial
I'll post a comment on the relevant Jira as well, but it would be helpful if people could provide a reference to some existing "server" products that they are attempting to model Solr 5.0 after - or provide a rationale as to why no existing server products provide a model worthy of adopting for Solr. I mean, are we trying too reinvent the wheel here, or what?!

Re: Getting many slorconfig.xml's in the example folder
You have to provide us some more details here. What are the paths for these files? And full names? What operations are you doing to upload? Are you using SolrCloud? If so how are you pushing the files up? What version of Solr? You might want to review: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/UsingMailingLists Best, Erick On Sun, Nov 30, 2014 at 4:33 AM, ASHOK SARMAH wrote: > Hi I am not getting why there are many solrconfig.xml file. > Is that everytime when we upload a file to solr solrconfig.xml file is > generated.

Re: Getting many slorconfig.xml's in the example folder
If you are talking about default distribution, it is because Solr comes with multiple examples actually. Look for the file solr.xml. That's the rule of a full example each of which may have one or more collections. If you start Solr with java -Dsolr.solr.home=/x/y/z -jar start.jar you will see the rest of them. Where /x/y/z is the location of the solr.xml file. Regards, Alex.

It found the jar that failed for you with no problem. Is there anything unusual about your setup, other than the fact that it's on windows? What version of ant are you using, and what version of the ivy jar do you have? I assume that the ivy jar is in .ant\lib in your home directory, probably put there by "ant ivy-bootstrap". The best option for the JDK is a very recent 1.7 version from Oracle. Thanks, Shawn
Re: Getting many slorconfig.xml's in the example folder
It's a default configuration. Nothing to do with post.jar. Easy to check this by just looking at what's inside the zip file. Reread my other email for details again.

Different update handlers for auto commit configuration
Hi, On our system we currently initiate a soft commit to SOLR after each business transaction that initiate an update. Hard commits are automatic each 2 minutes. We want to limit the explicit commit and move to autoSoftCommit. Because of business restrictions: Online request should be available for searching after 2 seconds. Update from batch jobs can be available after 10 seconds. (maybe more, currently on discussion). There are some transactions that must be available immediately. Question I thought about creating 3 different update handlers, each containing a different autoSoftCommit configuration. Is this an acceptable solution, are there any downsides in using multiple update handlers? Thanks,
Solr Wiki - Request to add to contributors group
Hi, I am a student in an informatics class about search, and I need to write an article in the Solr wiki as a part of my final project. Of course, I need the proper permissions to contribute to the wiki, so if you could please add "StanHu" to the contributors group, that would be much appreciated.

Re: Different update handlers for auto commit configuration
Uhhhm, the soft/hard commit settings are global, not configured in each update handler. How are updates being done? Because if you're using SolrJ, you can just use the server.add(doclist, commitwithin) and it'll just be handled automatically. True, putting a 2 second commitwithin on an online update would pick up some batch updates that happened to come in, but that's probably OK. I'd also be sure that the 2 second requirement is real. Soft commits aren't as expensive as hard commits with openSearcher=true, but they aren't free either. At that fast a commit rate you probably won't get much benefit out of the top-level caches, and you'll be warming an awful lot.

Re: Solr Compile error
Hi there thanx for your reply. I'm using ivy 2.3.0 these files that were not accessible: so I downloaded them from: - http://maven.restlet.com/org/restlet/jee/org.restlet/2.1.1/org.restlet.jar - http://maven.restlet.com/org/restlet/jee/org.restlet.ext.servlet/2.1.1/org.restlet.ext.servlet.jar - http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.codahale.metrics/metrics-core/3.0.1/metrics-core.jar - http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.codahale.metrics/metrics-healthchecks/3.0.1/metrics-healthchecks.jar - http://www.eu.apache.org/dist/avro/avro-1.7.7/java/avro.jar and put them in the" \.ivy2\cache\ " in the home directory. after that it compiles successfully. It could be some firewall settings that blocked the download of those files. thanks again. Cheers,
