Sorry if this is obvious (because it isn't for me) I want to build a solr (4.5.1) + nutch (1.7.1) environment. I'm doing this on amazon linux (I may put nutch on a separate server eventually).
Please let me know if my thinking is sound or off base in the example folder are a lot of files and folders including the war file and start.jar drwxr-xr-x cloud-scripts drwxr-xr-x contexts drwxr-xr-x etc drwxr-xr-x example-DIH drwxr-xr-x exampledocs drwxr-xr-x example-schemaless drwxr-xr-x lib drwxr-xr-x logs drwxr-xr-x multicore -rw-r--r-- README.txt drwxr-xr-x resources drwxr-xr-x solr drwxr-xr-x solr-webapp -rw-r--r-- start.jar drwxr-xr-x webapps I am creating a separate folder for the conf and data folders (on another disk) and placing these files in the conf file schema-solr.xml (from nutch) renamed to schema.solr solrconfig.xml I will use the example folder and start.jar from that location. (is this okay) Where do I set the collection name? What else do I need to do to get a basic web page indexer built. (I'll work out the crawling later, I just want to be able to manually add some documents and query). I'm trying to understand solr first and then will use nutch. I have several books and have looked at the tutorial and other web sites. It seems they assume that I know where to begin when creating a new collection and customizing it.
