Hi Bill

 

Thank you very much for your email.

 

According to your suggestion I separated two instances of gsearch to separate 
tomcat, but still the same problem. 

 

BUT when I delete all the contents of 
fedora/data/activemq-data/localhost/kr-store/ and restart both tomcats in order 
(fedora tomcat first and then gsearch) it is working perfectly.

 

Regards

Nilani

Hi Nilani,

 

Are there any hints in the logs indicating why the second gsearch instance is 
not starting up?

 

I'm not sure I follow exactly how you have things set up. Are you running a 
single tomcat with Fedora and two instances of gsearch? It may be helpful to 
split out the apps into their own containers in order to track down where the 
problem lies. You may also want to consider running your own message broker 
rather than just using the one included with Fedora. The Fedora messaging 
client that GSearch uses does include a mechanism to wait for the broker to be 
available before attempting to connect, but it will eventually time out. If 
that happens, gsearch won't get any updates. Running the broker (an instance of 
ActiveMQ) as a stand-alone process will ensure that it's available when each of 
the gsearch apps attempt to connect to it.

Thank you for your email. I am making sure both of the gsearch instances' 
update listeners are running with separate

Client ids. First instance of gsearch getting updated without any problem. But 
when I restart the tomcat second instance of gsearch not getting updated; but 
if I change the client id and restart the tomcat it is getting updated again.

Hi Nilani,

 

I just wanted to confirm your thoughts about the update listener: you do want 
to ensure that each gsearch client uses its own value for client.id. The JMS 
listener in the update listener will create a durable subscription based on 
that id, meaning that even if the listener drops out and comes back, all 
messages will still be delivered. If you use the same id for two listeners, 
only one of them will get those "durable" messages. This is likely why you were 
seeing inconsistent message delivery. It is expected that each gsearch instance 
communicating with a single Fedora (actually with a single JMS broker) will 
have its own client.id value.

Hi Nilani

 

Thank you for this feedback. The solr autocommit is the key to it, I had forgot 
about it, but it is actually set on in the DemoOnSolr config in gsearch.

 

I do not know much about the update listener, but changing the client.id to 
ensure uniqueness sounds right.

 

Regards

Gert

Hi Gert

 

Thank you very for you advice on setting up gsearch with solr 1.4. I am 
successfully running gsearch 2.2 with solr 1.4. As you have mentioned I have 
copied lucene-core-2.9.2.jar to lib.

 

 I am summarising the problems I had and solutions here; this might be helpful 
to others who are planning to move to solr 1.4 with gsearch. Also I need your 
advice on  couple of questions at the end.

 

I had a problem in added documents to index not showing up in the solr search 
results. I thought this is because gsearch might not be doing an explicit 
commit after each add to index, I enabled auto commit in solrConfig.xml. After 
this each added document to the index in shown in the solr search results 
immediately.

 

Basically one fedora repository is indexed using two instances of gsearch as 
below.

-          First instance of gsearch using licence  2.4

-          Second instance of gsearch using solr 1.4

 

I am using update listener on gsearch side to receive the messages. First 
instance of gserach receiving messages without any problem, second instance 
some times not receiving messages but if I change client id in 
updater.properties it starts working. 

 

Questions

-------------

1.       How I can solve the problem with update listener?

 

2.       When I read about solr commit operation it is mentioned in several 
places not to commit after each add; do commit as a batch process. But for our 
repository with 200,000 objects we need immediate refresh of search results.  I 
have added 1000 objects to the repository in 10 mins without any problem (with 
commit after each add). Do you have any thoughts?

 

Regards

Nilani
