Hi, I'm all at sea with this. I'm trying to get Ubuntu 9.04 (x64 Server), Tomcat 6.0.18 and Solr 1.3.0 to play together. So far, no dice. Here's where I'm at:
I installed Java: sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jdk I downloaded the latest Tomcat (6.0.18) and stuck it in /usr/local/tomcat I downloaded the latest Solr (1.3.0) and dropped the war file in /usr/local/solr/ I intend the index to live at /var/solr/ and dropped the example home directory into this. I added the following context fragment at /usr/local/tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/solr.xml <Context docBase="/usr/local/solr/solr.war" debug="0" crossContext="true" > <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String" value="/var/solr" override="true" /> </Context> I added the following startup script into init.d # Tomcat auto-start # # description: Auto-starts tomcat # processname: tomcat # pidfile: /var/run/tomcat.pid export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dsolr.solr.home=/var/solr" case $1 in start) sh /usr/local/tomcat/bin/startup.sh ;; stop) sh /usr/local/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh ;; restart) sh /usr/local/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh sh /usr/local/tomcat/bin/startup.sh ;; esac exit 0 When I navigate to http://myServer:8080 I get the Tomcat page. If I navigate to http://myServer:8080/solr/admin I get: HTTP Status 404 - /solr/admin ------------------------------ *type* Status report *message* */solr/admin* *description* *The requested resource (/solr/admin) is not available.* ------------------------------ Apache Tomcat/6.0.18 Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? Or what I could to to get more information? Cheers, Tim
