Solr admin page error on Solaris
Hi, Just trying to get Solr running. I can run it OK on my Windows machine as per the tutorial. However, on my Solaris machine I'm having trouble. My newly-installed Tomcat is running the various examples, seems to be running OK. Running: Tomcat version 5.5.16 Java version 1.5.0_06-b05 Running Solaris 5.9 on sparc I put last night's solr.war file in webapps and it shows up OK in Tomcat manager and admin. I then pointed my browser to http://mydomain:8080/solr/admin/ and the resulting page looks like below. Any help appreciated, thanks! org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Exception in JSP: /admin/_info.jsp:7 4: 5: 6: <%@ page import="java.util.Date"%> 7: 8: 9: 10: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] file="header.jsp" %> Stacktrace: org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.handleJspException(JspServletWrapper.java:504) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:375) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:314) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:264) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) *root cause* javax.servlet.ServletException org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.doHandlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:858) org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:791) org.apache.jsp.admin.index_jsp._jspService(index_jsp.java:262) org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:97) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:332) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:314) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:264) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) *root cause* java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError org.apache.jsp.admin.index_jsp._jspService(index_jsp.java:67) org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:97) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:332) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:314) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:264) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802)
Solr war file errors in Apache Tomcat/5.5.16
I am still having trouble getting Solr's war file to run under Solaris. I just took the most recent nightly build war, put it under /webapps/, point browser to /solr/admin/, and see the output below. This is a new install of Solaris but all the Tomcat test pages work and Nutch seems to have installed ok. Any ideas? Thanks. The Tomcat page looks like this: *type* Exception report *message* *description* _The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request._ *exception* org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Exception in JSP: /admin/_info.jsp:7 4: 5: 6: <%@ page import="java.util.Date"%> 7: 8: 9: 10: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] file="header.jsp" %> Stacktrace: org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.handleJspException(JspServletWrapper.java:504) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:375) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:314) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:264) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) *root cause* javax.servlet.ServletException org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.doHandlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:858) org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:791) org.apache.jsp.admin.index_jsp._jspService(index_jsp.java:262) org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:97) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:332) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:314) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:264) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) *root cause* java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError org.apache.jsp.admin.index_jsp._jspService(index_jsp.java:67) org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:97) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:332) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:314) org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:264) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) *note* _The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/5.5.16 logs._
One big XML file vs. many HTTP requests
Greetings, I'm evaluating using Solr under Tomcat to replace a number of text searching projects that currently use UMASS's INQUERY, an older search engine. One nice feature of INQUERY is that you can create one large SGML file, containing lots of records, each bracketed with and tags. Submitting that big SGML document for indexing goes very fast. I believe that Solr indexes one document at a time; each document requires a separate HTTP POST. How efficient is making a separate HTTP request per-document, when there are millions of documents? Do people ever use Solr's or Lucene's API directly for indexing large numbers of documents, and if so, what are the considerations pro and con? Thanks to Yonik and Chris everyone for all your work; Solr looks really great.
Separate config and index per webapp
I'd like to use Solr for a number of separate projects running on a single Tomcat instance; I thought I would have Solr running a separate webapp for each project. I understand that the default location for the solrconfig.xml and schema.xml files and for the index are under Tomcat's current-working-directory/solr/conf I am hoping I can change the default location for each webapp. Thanks!
Re: Separate config and index per webapp
I copied solrconfig.xml, schema.xml, synonyms.txt, protwords.txt and stopwords.txt into the WEB-INF/classes directory and the webapp is reading those files. I was thinking that if I uncommented the indexDir element in solrconfig.xml, it would then use that directory in which to place the index The commented-out default value is: index I tried changing the value to: indexXXX However this is being ignored; the index directory is still being created under Tomcat's current-working-directory/solr/conf/index (In my case I'm testing under Windows and it's C:\Tomcat 5.5\solr\data\index) Any ideas? Thanks.

It's not yet possible, but see this thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/solr-dev@lucene.apache.org/msg00298.html It looks like JNDI offers the easiest portable way. The main SolrServlet would then need to be modified to do a JNDI lookup and base config off of that. The way I did it is I unpacked the WAR and put my config files into WEB-INF/classes/. Then I individually edit each app's solrconfig.xml and specify a unique path for the index directory. This may not be for everyone, but since I had to unpack the WAR anyway... -MB
Re: Separate config and index per webapp
Changing to works fine with my version from 2006-05-15 Thanks for your help, this is just what I needed.

Re: One big XML file vs. many HTTP requests
It seems you can do something like FIELDNAME:a* and FIELDNAME:b* ...but you can't simply FIELDNAME:* or * The demo post.sh returns Error parsing Lucene query and the demo Solr Admin page shows XML Parsing Error: syntax error Location: http://wiki.ushmm.org:8080/solr/select/?stylesheet=&q=*&version=2.1&start=0&rows=10&indent=on Line Number 1, Column 1:org.apache.solr.core.SolrException: Error parsing Lucene query ^ What is the best way to delete all records, for example if you want to clear out the entire index and reindex everything? On 5/21/06, Chris Hostetter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: : But deleting multiple documents with just one POST is not possible, : right? Is there a special reason for that or is it because nobody asked delete by query will remoe multiple documents with a sigle command .. but if you mean dleete by id .. you may be right about it not having the same "loop" kludge that has. As Yonik has mentioned before .. if you use persistent connections in your HTTP Client layer, there isn't really any advantage to sending multiple commands in one request, vs sending multiple requests. -Hoss
No segments file after optimizing using Luke
After using Luke v0.7 to Optimize Index, with either "Using Standard Format" or "Using Compound Format", and restarting Solr using jetty, I get a java.io.FileNotFoundException indicating that it can't find the segments file. There's no segments file in the index directory, but Luke optimization created files named segments_n (n being 3 for standard format and 6 for compound format) and segments.gen. How can I resolve this? Thanks in advance!
