Re: Problems finding solr/home using JNDI on tomcat

[Stefan Oestreicher]

Unfortunately I'm neither a solr nor a tomcat expert.

My setup is as follows:

solr.xml in /etc/tomcat5.5/Catalina/<hostname>/solr.xml

<Context docBase="/data/java/archives/solr-1.3-dev.war" debug="0"
crossContext="0">
    <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String"
        value="/data/java/solr" override="true" />
</Context>

And my <CATALINA_HOME> is /data/java/dev02

Is your solr.home writable by tomcat and outside of <CATALINA_HOME>? 

HTH,

Stefan Oestreicher

Hi,
Same problem.

Contextfile:
<Context docBase="/solr/solr.war" debug="1" crossContext="true">
   <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String" 
value="/solr/example/solr" override="true"/> </Context>

Output.

13-06-2008 11:36:20 org.apache.solr.servlet.SolrDispatchFilter init
INFO: SolrDispatchFilter.init()
13-06-2008 11:36:20 org.apache.solr.core.Config getInstanceDir
INFO: JNDI not configured for Solr (NoInitialContextEx)
13-06-2008 11:36:20 org.apache.solr.core.Config getInstanceDir

  Hi,

  I'm using tomcat5.5 too. I believe you need to specify override to be
true.

  <Context docBase="/solr/solr.war" debug="1" crossContext="true">
     <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String"
  value="/solr/example/solr"/ override="true">
  </Context>

  HTH,

  mit freundlichen Grüßen,

  Betreff: Problems finding solr/home using JNDI on tomcat

  Hi

  I'm using solr 1.2.0 on a Tomcat 5.5 engine And have copied a solr.xml in
  catalina_home/conf/hostname

  <Context docBase="/solr/solr.war" debug="1" crossContext="true">
     <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String"
  value="/solr/example/solr"/>
  </Context>

  And Tomcat certainly reads the solr.xml file, because solr is deployed
fine.
  However it cannot find the environment property, because there is a
  javax.naming.NoInitialContextException when trying to lookup the JNDI
name.

  13-06-2008 10:24:46 org.apache.solr.servlet.SolrDispatchFilter init
  INFO: SolrDispatchFilter.init()
  13-06-2008 10:24:46 org.apache.solr.core.Config getInstanceDir
  INFO: JNDI not configured for Solr (NoInitialContextEx)
  13-06-2008 10:24:46 org.apache.solr.core.Config getInstanceDir

  Any suggestions for how to solve that?
