I have been able to run the Nutch 0.5 successfully on Solaris 8, but not without some minor changes to the nutch indexing script. When I tried to run the indexer as is I got an error about not being able to "unset IFS". This problem was reported in an earlier email to the nutch-dev list.

My workaround was to comment out the following lines in "/bin/nutch" :

        # so that filenames w/ spaces are handled correctly in loops below
        #IFS=
        . . .
        # restore ordinary behaviour
        #unset IFS

My Solaris apparently does not allow IFS to be unset. If you get a similar IFS error on Solaris this workaround should work for you.
