I tried to install Java with Apache Solr the easy way using this tutorial:-
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-solr-on-ubuntu-14-04 If you want to install Solr the easy way, you should use this section of the article. Solr doesn't work alone; it needs a Java servlet container such as Tomcat or Jetty. In this article, we'll use Jetty, although Tomcat is just as easy. First, we should install the Java JDK. If you want to install a custom version, please see this article <https://digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-java-on-ubuntu-with-apt-get>. If you want a simple installation, execute the following commands: sudo apt-get -y install openjdk-7-jdk mkdir /usr/java ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64 /usr/java/default Ubuntu provides 3 Solr packages by default: solr-common, the package that contains the actual Solr code; solr-tomcat, Solr integrated with Tomcat; and solr-jetty, which is just like solr-tomcat but with the Jetty web server. In this article, we will install solr-tomcat, so execute the following command: sudo apt-get -y install solr-tomcat Your Solr instance should now be available at http://YOUR_IP:8080/solr. Skip the next section on installing manually if you want to configure Solr. Now I am getting this error:- opt/solr# java -v Unrecognized option: -v Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit. Someone please help me fix this! Thanks! Kev -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Java Posse" group.
