Running Solr 4.8.1 as a 64 bit Windows Service

[Michael Tobias]

Hi guys

 

We are still running Solr 4.8.1 (Bitnami Windows version) and cannot upgrade
at this time.

 

Everything has worked fine for a year running as a 32 bit windows service
(Windows Server 2012R2) but we are now experiencing dreadful memory issues -
the JVM is being exhausted and I cannot do any sizeable updates.

 

We have added RAM to the server and I want to move to 64 bit java to take
advantage of the increased RAM. BUT I am having real problems.  Either the
service refuses to start or I can get it started but it won't load my two
cores.  There was also a java error about java 8 not supporting the
MaxPermSize parameter.. So I have reverted to 32 bit and Solr runs fine for
searches but I cannot do updates to the cores.

 

Can anybody with experience of this please assist?

 

Regards

 

Michael

 

 

 

 

newbie question re solr.PatternReplaceFilterFactory

[Michael Tobias]

I am sure this is very simple but I cannot get the pattern right.

How can I use solr.PatternReplaceFilterFactory to remove all words in brackets 
from being indexed?

eg [ignore this]

thanks

Data Import Handler on 6.4.1

[Michael Tobias]

I am sure I am missing something simple but

I am running Solr 4.8.1 and trialling 6.4.1 on another computer.

I have had to manually modify the automatic 6.4.1 scheme config as we use a set 
of specialised field types.  They work fine.

I am now trying to populate my core with data and having problems.

Exactly what names/paths should I be using in the solrconfig.xml file to get 
this working - I don’t recall doing ANYTHING for 4.8.1


   ?
   
And where do I put the mysql-connector-java-5.1.29-bin.jar file and how do I 
reference it to get it loaded?


??

And then later in the solrconfig.xml I have:


  
db-data-config.xml
  



Any help much appreciated.

Regards

Michael

from your previous email:
"There is no "id"
field defined in the schema."

you need an id field to use the get handler

SlowFuzzySearch

[Michael Tobias]

Hi guys

I know that Solr now has a fast Fuzzy Search capability for levenshtein 
distances of up to 2, but I would like to use distances of 3 or 4 (up to half 
the word length if possible).

I have been told it is possible to use an older fuzzy search version called 
SlowFuzzyQuery but I am not sure how to use it.  I realise it will be slow(er) 
but my database will be reasonably small and I would like to test out the 
performance to see if it is a feasible option.  Is it still part of the Solr 
code or must I install it separately?

Any examples of its usage? And for distances of 2 or less does it actually 
perform a fast fuzzy search or must I revert to using the ~ syntax for those 
faster fuzzy searches?

All help appreciated.

Michael
