I want to serve solr as a standalone server on a specific port, and need to change the contextRoot from /solr to / (I need to include some health checks on / which I will add to the solr.war)
I've tried changing my node1/solr/solr.xml's hostContext variable to $(hostContext:) instead of $(hostContext:solr) but this didn't change anything at http://localhost:8983/solr/. And if I go to http://localhost:8983/, I get the following error: Error 404 - Not Found. No context on this server matched or handled this request. Contexts known to this server are: /solr ---> o.e.j.w.WebAppContext{/solr,file:/home/yaraju_gmail_com/solr-4.10.3/node1/solr-webapp/webapp/},/home/yaraju_gmail_com/solr-4.10.3/node1/webapps/solr.war What is the right way to do this? Thanks, Avanish
