Thank you James.
In Solr 3.6 http://localhost:8983/solr/admin links to the admin panel. So the question remains how to invoke an admin panel in Solr 4.0?
Does it mean that there is no such a thing as admin panel in Solr 4.0?
Try this URL on any version:
http://localhost:8983/solr
In 4.0, this will get you to an admin panel for everything. In 3.x,
this will get you to a page with links for all your admin panels. The
3.x panel is fairly simple, such that you can save the URL for almost
any page you're looking at and use that URL in a script. The 4.x page
is much more complex, generally you can't use the URL in your browser's
address bar in scripts. The new admin uses URLs like the following
behind the scenes to gather information:
http://localhost:8983/solr/CORE/admin/mbeans?stats=true
On another of your messages you indicated the government only allows
IE. This is a problem. The 4.0 admin interface is known to be broken
under IE9, and quite possibly IE8 as well. It may be worth pointing out
that you can install and run Google Chrome without admin privileges of
any kind. There are also a number of "pocket" browsers designed to run
from a USB stick that should run just fine from a directory on your hard
drive. I would not suggest using these without permission, but the
capability is there.
Thanks,
