Can I host TWO separate datasets in Solr?

2011-01-21 Thread Igor Chudov
I would like to have two sets of data and search them separately (they are
used for two different websites).

How can I do it?

Thanks!


How can I disable fsync()?

2010-10-29 Thread Igor Chudov
Thanks to all and I made Solr work very well on one newer machine.

Now I am setting up Solr on an older server with an IDE hard drive.

Unfortunately, populating the index takes FOREVER due to
Solr/Lucene/Tomcat calling fsync() a lot after every write.

I would like to know how to disable fsync.

I am very aware of the risks of not having fsync() and I DO NOT CARE
ABOUT THEM AND DO NOT WANT TO BE REMINDED.

I just want to know how can I disable fsync() when adding to Solr index.

Thanks, guys!

Igor

I have just implemented (well, almost) a Solr solution for a More
Like This type of application.

Let me just say that I am BLOWN AWAY by how great of a job the Solr
team has done. It works! It works fast! It works VERY well!

Re: Can Solr do approximate matching?

2010-09-23 Thread Igor Chudov
Eric, it appears that the /solr/mlt handler is missing, at least
based on the URL that I typed.

How can I verify existence of MoreLikeThis handler and install it?

Thanks a lot!

Igor

 It seems there is a SimilarLikeThis in lucene . I don't know whether a
 counterpart in solr. It just use the found document as a query to find
 similar documents. Or you just use boolean or query and similar
 questions with getting higher score. Of course, you can analyse the
 question using some NLP techs such as identifying entities and ingore
 less usefull words such as which is ... but I guess tf*idf score
 function will also work well

 Hi guys. I am new here. So if I am unwittingly violating any rules,
 let me know.

 I am working with Solr because I own algebra.com, where I have a
 database of 250,000 or so answered math questions. I want to use Solr
 to provide approximate matching functionality called similar items.
 So that users looking at a problem could see how similar ones were
 answered.

 And my question is, does Solr support some find similar
 functionality. For example, in my mind, sentence I like tasty
 strawberries is 'similar' to a sentence such as I like yummy
 strawberries, just because both have a few of the same words.

 So, to end my long winded query, how would I implement a find top ten
 similar items to this one functionality?

 Thanks!

How can I delete the entire contents of the index?

2010-09-22 Thread Igor Chudov
Let's say that I added a number of elements to Solr (I use
Webservice::Solr as the interface to do so).

Then I change my mind and want to delete them all.

How can I delete all contents of the database, but leave the database
itself, just empty?

Thanks
