Very likely you'll need to talk to whoever made the Solr plugin for dovecot. If they look at your situation and tell you that the problem is in Solr itself and they don't know what to do, then you can come back here with the specific logs and information that they point to. Solr, as shipped by Apache, defaults to INFO level logging (which is very verbose), into a file named logs/solr.log. If the solr log is in /var/log, then I can tell you already that either you're not using Solr directly from Apache, or someone has changed the config. If the Solr is packaged by someone else, they will have information that we don't, and they'll be better situated to help you. If it's Solr from Apache but the config has been modified, then we need to know what modifications were made. If I do a google search for "dovecot solr" (without the quotes), the very first hit that comes up looks like it's completely relevant. The links at the end of that page are not very helpful -- one requires authentication and the other talks about Solr 1.4.0, which is five years old. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/FTS/Solr Thanks, Shawn
