Hi everyone, I'm trying to get the CMS "TYPO3" connected with Solr 3.6.2.
By now I followed the installation at http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat except that I didn't copy the .war-file into the $SOLR_HOME but referencing to it at a different location via Tomcat Context fragment file. Until then the Solr-Server works – I can reach the GUI via URL. To get Solr connected with the CMS I then created a new core-folder (btw. can anybody give me kind of a live example, when to use different cores? Until now I still don't really understand the concept of cores ..) by duplicating the example-folder in which I overwrote some files (especially solrconfig.xml) with files offered by the TYPO3-community. I also moved the file "solr.xml" one level up and edited it (added core-fragment and especially adjusted "instanceDir") to get a correct multicore-setup like in the example multicore-setup within the downloaded solr-tgz-package. But now I get the Java-exception "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/solr/core/SolrInfoMBean at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method)" In the Tomcat-log file it is said additionally: "Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.solr.core.SolrInfoMBean". My guess is, that within the new solrconfig.xml there are calls to classes which aren't included correctly. There are some libs, which are included at the top of this file but the paths of the references should be ok as I checked them via Bash: At http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrConfigXml it is said that the <lib dir= directory is relative to the instanceDir, so this is what I've checked. I also inserted absolute paths but this wasn't successful either. Can anybody give me a hint how to solve this problem? Would be great :) Cheers, Michael
