Tim - If you can help it, I would suggest running Solr under Tomcat under Linux. Speaking from experience in a mixed mode environment, the Linux/Tomcat/Solr implementation just works. We're not newbies under Linux, but we're also a native Windows shop. The memory management and system availability is just outstanding in that stack.
If you must run Windows, Tomcat does integrate with IIS, but be prepared to jump through a few hoops. Spend time on making that combination work, and you'll be 90% there.... Hope this helps. -- j On 9/10/06, Tim Archambault <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Good news. The rookie did just that. Thanks Chris. Just having a difficult time how to send my query parameters to the engine from Coldfusion [intelligently]. I'm going to download the PHP app and see if I can figure it out. Having lots of fun with this for sure.
