Hey there, The Solr nightly build is a ready-to-go solution which has an embedded servlet container called Jetty. The only requirement that you need to have is either JRE or JDK 5.0 running on your machine, I prefer JRE because it's lighter. And that's simply it. You don't even need to know java at all to use Solr with Rails. I don't :)
Then once you have Solr on your machine, you just start it and let it run. It's recommended to have it run as a daemon, so you don't always have to be starting it manually every time you restart your computer. It's actually easier than it sounds to have it running and integrated with a rails app. And if more people show interest, maybe my buddy Joe and I could come by and give a little talk about it. Try it out and let me know what do you think. -- Thiago On 11/1/06, brez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
