Problem installing Solr-4.0 in Linux
Howdy, I'm having rather a lot of difficulty getting Solr 4.0 running under Linux (I got it up-and-running under Windows very quickly). My web server is Glassfish 3.1.1. Additonally, my solr/home dir is /opt/solr/solr-4.0 and my data dir is /opt/solr/data . When I deploy the solr war file or restart glassfish I get the following exception: [#|2012-11-29T15:42:10.439-0800|WARNING|glassfish3.1.1|javax.enterprise.system.container.web.com.sun.enterprise.web|_ThreadID=25;_ThreadName=Thread-2;|StandardWrapperValve[LoadAdminUI]: PWC1406: Servlet.service() for servlet LoadAdminUI threw exception java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/lang/StringEscapeUtils This makes no sense to me as that class is inside the war file. At this point I have no idea what to do to get past this. I've been hammering at this for quite some time now. Any suggestions?

Solr 4.1.0 index leaving write.lock file
Howdy, I've been using Solr 4.1.0 for a little while now and I just noticed that when I index any core I have the write.lock file doesn't go away until I stop the server where solr is running. The data I'm indexing is fairly small (16k rows in a db) so it shouldn't take much time at all though I have waited upwards of 15 minutes for the lock files to clear. Is there something I'm missing here?

Re: Solr 4.1.0 index leaving write.lock file
Well that makes sense. The problem is that I am working in both Solr and Lucene directly. I have some indexes that work great in Solr and now I want to do the same thing in Java using the Lucene libs. So I'm writing to the same index dir. I do testing by creating an index in Solr, look at it, and then attempt to recreate it using Lucene. However the lock file was killing me. Is there any way around this?

Re: Solr 4.1.0 index leaving write.lock file
Cool. I can use that setting while testing then set it back when I'm just running Lucene. Many thanks folks!

Solrj how to use TrieDoubleField
Howdy, I have a Solr implementation that allows me to do a geospatial search and I'm trying to replicate it using the solrj libs. The schema.xml that I'm using looks like this: id name And it works perfectly. Now I'm trying to write code to create an index using the same fields. I have previously created other indexes just fine (by creating an Analyzer and an IndexWriter and writing Document objects) and I will be reusing the same Analyzer I used before. The problem specifically lies in creating the field (a TrieDoubleField) for the lat/lon data. Is there an example of that somewhere that I could plagiarize?

Query question
Howdy, I have a straight-forward index that contains a "name" field. I am currently taking a string of text, tokenizing it into individual strings and making a query out of them all against the "name" field. Note that the name field is split up by a whitespace tokenizer and a lower case filter during indexing. My query is working fine but I want to boost the score when multiple terms match. So for example if I had an entry in my index that was originally "Valley Fair Mall" and the string I was using to search was "I'm shopping at Valley Fair mall" my query is currently being chopped into: name:i'm~ name:shopping~ name:at~ name:valley~ name:fair~ name:mall~ Note that I use OR by default. So as I said, the search result I want is the one with the highest score, but I was hoping to find a way to boost the score based on the number of terms it finds (or matches well) so that I can differentiate between a close match and nowhere near. Any suggestions? Regards, T -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Query-question-tp4040559.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Solr 3.6.0 problem with multi-core and json
Howdy, I have a multi-core set up in Solr 3.6.0 which works fine. That is until I request the response in json with the "wt=json" parameter. When I do that it looks like its using the schema.xml file of one of my other cores because it complains that it can not get a required field that exists in the schema.xml of one of the other cores. Has anyone seen this issue before? If so what was the fix. I'm spending far too much time trying to convert the default xml response into json. I'd like to have the response returned in json.

Re: Solr 3.6.0 problem with multi-core and json
I should clarify the error a bit. When I make a select request on my first core (called core0) using the wt=json parameter I get a 400 response with the explanation "undefined field: gid". The field gid is not defined in the schema.xml file of my first core. But, it is defined in the schema.xml file of my third core (core2). Hopefully, this is a slightly better explanation of the problem.

Apparently there is some problem in some of my other configuration files that was tripping me up. When I copy all of the configuration files from the 4.0 source I can start up.

Puzzled by search score
Howdy,
I'm reading a table in a db using the following schema:
id
tag
So make the following query
http://localhost:8080/apache-solr-4.0.0/core0/select?q=tag%3Aclothes~%2Bcid%3A14&sort=score+desc&rows=10&fl=tag+score&wt=json&indent=true
You will notice that I'm doing a search on the tag field against the string
"clothes" and the cid field against the long 14 and requesting that the
results come back sorted on descending score values. So I'm surprised to see
these results:
{
"responseHeader":{
"status":0,
"QTime":1,
"params":{
"q":"tag:clothes~+cid:14",
"sort":"score desc",
"rows":"10",
"fl":"tag score",
"wt":"json",
"indent":"true"}},
"response":{"numFound":1835,"start":0,"maxScore":3.9238024,"docs":[
{
"tag":"Table Cloth",
"score":3.9238024},
{
"tag":"Clothes",
"score":3.9134552},
{
"tag":"Clothes",
"score":3.9134552},
{
"tag":"Clothes",
"score":3.9134552},
{
"tag":"Clothes",
"score":3.9134552},
{
"tag":"Clothes",
"score":3.9134552},
{
"tag":"Clothes",
"score":3.9134552},
{
"tag":"Boys Clothes",
"score":3.3968315},
{
"tag":"Everyday Clothes",
"score":3.3968315},
{
"tag":"Designer Clothes",
"score":3.3968315}]
}}
Why does "Table Cloth" have a higher score than "Clothes" (which is an exact
textual match)? I could use some help understanding why I have these results
and how to tweak my query so that the results match my expectations.
Regards,
Tim

4.0 query question
Howdy, I have a Solr query that is almost perfect: http://localhost:8080/apache-solr-4.0.0/v3_tag_core/select?q=tag%3A%22coat%22%5E4+%22coat%22+cid%3A136+&sort=score+desc&rows=10&fl=id+tag+cid+file_version+lang+score&wt=json&indent=true&debugQuery=true It's grabbing data that includes the fields: id, tag, cid, file_version, lang, and score AND sorting them by score descending. Excellent! However, I need to figure out how to have the query only return rows with the same cid that have the highest file_version. For example if it finds two rows with the same cid and one has file_version 14 and another with file version 10, it should toss out the one with file version 10. Note that there may be multiple rows with the same file_version and I'd like all of them with the highest file_version. I just can't find an explanation for this in the docs. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: 4.0 query question
I think I may have found my answer buy I'd like additional validation: I believe that I can add a function to my query to get only the highest values of 'file_version' like this - _val_:"max(file_version, 1)" I seem to be getting the results I want. Does this look correct?

4.0 query question

Solr 4.0 Dismax woes (2 specifically)
Heck,
I originally started using the default query parser but gave up on it
because all of my search results are equally important and idf was messing
up my results pretty badly. So I discovered the DisMax query parser which
doesn't use idf. I was elated until I started testing. My initial results
looked good but when I cut down the query string from "clothes" to "clot" I
got zero results.
I've been reading about how disMax is supposed to do fuzzy searches but I
can't make it work at all.
To complicate matters I discovered that my all of my search words are being
used against all of the query fields. I had previously assumed that each
search word would only be applied to individual query fields.
So for example my q is:
clothe 95
And my qf:
tag cid
So I believe that the words "clothe" and "95" are being searched on both
fields ("tag" and "cid") which is not what I wanted to do. I was hoping to
have "cloth" applied only to the "tag" field and "95" applied only to the
"cid" field.
I really don't have it in me to write my own query parser so I'm hoping to
find a way to do a fuzzy search without scores being screwed by idf. Is
there a way to achieve my desired results with existing code?
Regards,
(A tired) Tim

Solr 4.0 Spatial Search schema.xml and data-config.xml
Howdy, I now want to try my hand a spatial search. It looks fairly easy but I'm a bit puzzled about how to set up my schema.xml file. I know that my field must use the LatLon type but the columns of the database where I'll be pulling my data for indexing have separate lat and lon columns (both double). I can't figure out how to write my entity tag in my data-config.xml to take the two columns lon and lat (both double) and combine them so that I can put them into a LonLat field. I haven't had much luck finding an example. Is there one out there?
