Hello. I apologize in advance if I've overlooked something obvious, but I've been trying for over a day to setup Solr to run on the Tomcat 5.5 that's bundled with JBoss AS 4.0.5 GA. There is plenty of help on the Solr Wiki about setting it up on Tomcat 5.5 Standalone, but no help on Tomcat 5.5 Bundled.
Ideally, it should be a similar process, but it doesn't seem to be. Tomcat Bundled is quite different from Tomcat Standalone. There is no "webapps" deployment folder or "<tomcat>\conf\Catalina\localhost" config folder, as referred to on the "Solr Tomcat" wiki page, and in fact the entire folder structure is quite different, due to JBoss' treatment of Tomcat as just another service. I've actually gotten past all of the hurdles, except for figuring out how to setup "Solr Home" via JNDI so that Tomcat Bundled will see the binding. I have tried various approaches: 1. Based on instructions at "http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat";, I created an XML fragment: <Context docBase="C:\Dev\jboss-4.0.5.GA\server\default\deploy\Solr.war" debug="0" crossContext="true"> <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String" value="C:\Dev\MyTestSolrHome" override="true" /> </Context> and tried placing it in various promising places: - jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/<Solr.war>/META-INF/context.xml - jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/<Solr.war>/META-INF/solr.xml - jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/context.xml - jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/solr.xml - jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/conf/context.xml - jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/conf/solr.xml 2. Based on instructions at "http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JNDIBindingServiceMgr";, I copied the sample JNDIBindingServiceMgr <mbean>, and customized it with the following JNDI binding: <jndi:binding name="solr/home"> <jndi:value type="java.lang.String">C:\Dev\MyTestSolrHome</jndi:value> </jndi:binding> and tried placing it in "jboss-4.0.5.GA\server\default\conf\jboss-service.xml", under the "JNDI" section. None of these approaches worked, and during Solr startup I still get the following in the logs: ============================================================== 16:56:33,532 ERROR [STDERR] Mar 21, 2007 4:56:33 PM org.apache.solr.servlet.SolrServlet init INFO: SolrServlet.init() 16:56:33,532 ERROR [STDERR] Mar 21, 2007 4:56:33 PM org.apache.solr.servlet.SolrServlet init INFO: No /solr/home in JNDI 16:56:33,532 ERROR [STDERR] Mar 21, 2007 4:56:33 PM org.apache.solr.servlet.SolrServlet init INFO: user.dir=C:\Dev\jboss-4.0.5.GA\bin 16:56:33,610 ERROR [STDERR] Mar 21, 2007 4:56:33 PM org.apache.solr.core.Config getInstanceDir INFO: Solr home defaulted to 'solr/' ============================================================== Can anyone please help?
