Re: [Dspace-tech] Problem reading solr/home in DSpace 4.1 when running in Jetty

[Brown, Jacob]

Answering my own question in case anyone else encounters the same issue:

Jetty isn't configured to support JNDI by default. To enable JNDI you have to:


1)      Add "plus" to the "OPTIONS=" line in start.ini

2)      Add "etc/jetty-plus.xml" to the list of loaded configuration files at 
the end of start.ini

Jetty can then load the "solr/home" property from the Solr WAR web.xml.

Subject: Problem reading solr/home in DSpace 4.1 when running in Jetty

Hi all,

I just installed DSpace 4.1 and am running it in Jetty (jetty-8.1.14). When the 
Solr webapp is initializing, I get the following info/errors:

182  [main] INFO  org.apache.solr.core.SolrResourceLoader  - No /solr/home in 
JNDI
183  [main] INFO  org.apache.solr.core.SolrResourceLoader  - solr home 
defaulted to 'solr/' (could not find system property or JNDI)

which causes solr.xml to not get read, which causes Solr to not run properly...

Solr home is appropriately "hard-coded" (as generated by the install process) 
in [dspace]/webapps/solr/WEB-INF/web.xml (that is, `env-entry-value` is set to 
the appropriate directory). However, this setting is apparently not getting 
read by Jetty.

If I run Jetty with:

java -jar start.jar -Dsolr.solr.home=/path/to/dspace/solr

then Solr is started correctly. I skimmed the listserv and looked around 
online, and didn't see any suggestions for this specific error as related to 
DSpace.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks,
