acts_as_solr accesses the Solr server listed in the config solr.yml
file. You don't have to use the start/stop Rake actions, they are
really just conveniences for development/testing (I personally would
launch Solr separately in production though).
Out of curiosity, what acts_as_solr version/branch are you using?

Hi,
I have setup solr search server in tomcat.
I am able to fire queries(of any knid) & get results in xml format.
Now i want to Integerate it(solr) with ruby on rails .
I know ruby on rails has inbuilt plugin acts_as_solr which helps in
integerating(talking) with solr.
acts_as_solr comes bundled with solr web application with jetty
server.
But i don't wanna use this inbuilt solr web application .
e.g. i don't wanna do rake solr:start.
I am running solr as different search server in tomcat at port 8983.
(url
http://localhost:8983/solr/ & all other urls are listening)
Now, I want to talk to this solr server (separate) using acts_as_solr
plugin.
Questions:
1)Can anybody point me how to do this?
Any tutorial ?
2)What changes I had to make in acts_as_solr plugin?
3)Any good pointers(urls) will be appreciated.......
Regards
Abhay
