Check the firewall settings on the Linux machine. By default, mine block port 8983, so the request never even gets to Jetty/Solr.

Now I'm trying to access it remotely on my Windows Machine using an http request from a browser. Any time I try to access it with a request such as "http//localhost:8983/solr" I always get a connection error (with the server running on the linux virtual machine, it's not a because I forgot to turn the service on) I know that my server is probably set to take requests specifically from my virtual machine so I need to change that. >From the several hours of research I've done on the web it seems like I need >to change jetty.xml in the /etc/jetty directory. But others suggest I need to >make a change to solr.config itself. There's a lot of conflicting info and >it's pretty much got me randomly changing things in jetty.xml and solr.config >and nothing's worked as of yet. If anybody has any idea how to get this to work I would greatly appreciate it. -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Connecting-to-a-Solr-server-remotely-tp4213335.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
