You need to edit the web.xml as I stated above and put the solr.war file back.
Instead of "example" it is "server". Note: 4.10.4 and 5.1.0 uses the same Jetty. 8.1.10.v20130312 Here is the procedure for 5.1: mkdir war cp ../solr-5.1.0/example/webapps/solr.war . jar xvf solr.war cd WEB-INF vi web.xml Add this above the <filter> already there (and save it after adding this). <filter> <filter-name>GzipFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>org.eclipse.jetty.servlets.GzipFilter</filter-class> <init-param> <param-name>mimeTypes</param-name> <param-value>application/xml,application/json,text/html,text/plain,text/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/css,application/javascript,image/svg+xml,application/x-javascript,text/css</param-value> </init-param> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>GzipFilter</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> cd .. rm solr.war jar cvf solr.war * cp solr.war ../solr-5.1.0/example/webapps/solr.war get jetty-servlets-8.1.10.v20130312.jar from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/jetty/updates/jetty-bundles-8.x/8.1.10.v20130312/Jetty-bundles-repository-8.1.10.v20130312.zip&mirror_id=454 (notice the name has to be exactly that) and put into solr-5.1.0/example/lib restart On Sun, May 24, 2015 at 8:26 PM, Zheng Lin Edwin Yeo <edwinye...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks for your reply. > Do we still have to use back the solr.war file in Solr 5.1 in order to get > the gzip working? > > > Regards, > Edwin > > > > On 25 May 2015 at 06:57, William Bell <billnb...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > OK I got mine to work with 4.10.4 and it also works on 5.1... > > > > mkdir war cp ../solr-4.10.4/example/webapps/solr.war . jar xvf > > solr.war cd WEB-INF vi web.xmlAdd this above the <filter> already > > there:<filter> <filter-name>GzipFilter</filter-name> > > <filter-class>org.eclipse.jetty.servlets.GzipFilter</filter-class> > > <init-param> <param-name>mimeTypes</param-name> > > > > > <param-value>application/xml,application/json,text/html,text/plain,text/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/css,application/javascript,image/svg+xml,application/x-javascript,text/css</param-value> > > </init-param> </filter> <filter-mapping> > > <filter-name>GzipFilter</filter-name> > > <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> cd .. rm solr.war > > jar cvf solr.war * cp solr.war ../solr-4.10.4/example/webapps/solr.war > > get jetty-servlets-8.1.10.v20130312.jar from > > > > > http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/jetty/updates/jetty-bundles-8.x/8.1.10.v20130312/Jetty-bundles-repository-8.1.10.v20130312.zip&mirror_id=454 > > (notice the name has to be exactly that) and put into > > solr-4.10.4/example/lib restart > > > > > > On Thu, May 21, 2015 at 11:31 PM, Zheng Lin Edwin Yeo < > > edwinye...@gmail.com> > > wrote: > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > I'm trying to apply gzip compression in Solr 5.1.
