: After following Otis' and Thorsten's advice, I still get: : : HTTP ERROR: 500 No Java compiler available
Just so i'm clear, you: 1) downloaded solr, tried out the tutorial, and had the url http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/ work when you ran: > cd $DIR_CONTAINING_SOLR/example > java -jar start.jar 2) you then installed the debian packaging of jetty (which aparently uses port 8280). 3) you copied the solr WAR into the debian install of jetty, and how you get an error about no compiler when you hit the url http://localhost:8280/solr/admin did i sum that up correctly? have you by any chance attempted to get the debian install of jetty to compile/run a simple helloworld.jsp ? If that doesn't work, then you have a much more fundemental problem with the way Jetty is setup then anything related to Solr. This really sounds like maybe there is a problem with the debain packaging of jetty, and nothing specific to Solr ... perhaps people on the jetty user list or one of the debian user lists might have some ideas? -Hoss
