Hi I am trying to upgrade Solr from v5.3 to v6.1.0 which comes with Jetty 9.3.8.v20160314. However, after the upgrade we seem to have lost Gzip compression capability since we still have the old configuration. When I send the following request with the appropriate headers, I do not get a gzipped response: curl -H "Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate" "http://localhost:8983/solr/myApiAlias/select?wt=json&q=uuid:%22146c521c-9966-4f0a-94f9-465cd847b921%22&group=true&group.ngroups=true&group.field=uuid&group.limit=10000&sort=start+asc,definition+asc,id+asc&start=0&rows=5"
I should be expecting the "Content-Encoding: gzip" header in the response. However, I get the following response: < HTTP/1.1 200 OK< Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8< Content-Length: 393 Here is how the previous configuration was for enabling configuration: dir: /opt/solr/server/contexts/solr-jetty-context.xml --------------------------Solr v5.3 configuration---------------------------<?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE Configure PUBLIC "-//Jetty//Configure//EN" "http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/configure_9_0.dtd"><Configure class="org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext"> <Set name="contextPath"><Property name="hostContext" default="/solr"/></Set> <Set name="war"><Property name="jetty.base"/>/solr-webapp/webapp</Set> <Set name="defaultsDescriptor"><Property name="jetty.base"/>/etc/webdefault.xml</Set> <Set name="extractWAR">false</Set><!-- Gzip compression for large content--><Call name="addFilter"> <Arg>org.eclipse.jetty.servlets.GzipFilter</Arg> <Arg>/*</Arg> <Arg> <Call name="of" class="java.util.EnumSet"> <Arg><Get name="REQUEST" class="javax.servlet.DispatcherType" /></Arg> </Call> </Arg> <Call name="setInitParameter"> <Arg>mimetypes</Arg> <Arg>text/html,text/xml,text/plain,text/css,text/javascript,text/json,application/x-javascript,application/javascript,application/json,application/xml,application/xml+xhtml,image/svg+xml</Arg> </Call> <Call name="setInitParameter"> <Arg>methods</Arg> <Arg>GET,POST</Arg> </Call></Call> I have modified this configuration to use the GzipHandler (http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/9.3.x/gzip-filter.html) and updated solr-jetty-context.xml as follows: ----------------------------Solr v6.1.0 configuration-----------------------------<?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE Configure PUBLIC "-//Jetty//Configure//EN" "http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/configure_9_0.dtd"><Configure class="org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext"> <Set name="contextPath"><Property name="hostContext" default="/solr"/></Set> <Set name="war"><Property name="jetty.base"/>/solr-webapp/webapp</Set> <Set name="defaultsDescriptor"><Property name="jetty.base"/>/etc/webdefault.xml</Set> <Set name="extractWAR">false</Set> <!-- Gzip compression for large content--> <Set name="gzipHandler"> <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.gzip.GzipHandler"> <Set name="includedPaths"> <Array type="String"> <Item>/*</Item> </Array> </Set> <Set name="includedMimeTypes"> <Arg> <Array type="String"> <Item>text/html</Item> <Item>text/xml</Item> <Item>text/plain</Item> <Item>text/css</Item> <Item>text/javascript</Item> <Item>text/json</Item> <Item>application/x-javascript</Item> <Item>application/javascript</Item> <Item>application/json</Item> <Item>application/xml</Item> <Item>application/xml+xhtml</Item> <Item>image/svg+xml</Item> </Array> </Arg> </Set> <Set name="includedMethods"> <Array type="String"> <Item>GET</Item> <Item>POST</Item> </Array> </Set> </New> </Set></Configure> However, when I restart Solr v6.1.0 with the new configuration, it does not show any errors in the logs but the application becomes unavailable and all requests return 404 Not Found response code. I have also tried the suggestion posted on Stack Overflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30391741/gzip-compression-not-working-in-solr-5-1). However, as this is not for Solr v6.1.0, it fails to work as well. Wondering if someone can please provide a way to configure gzip compression with Solr+Jetty installation. Many thanks. Kind regards, Gul
