What error are you receiving? Check your config files for any
absolute rather than relative paths would be my first guess...

help with Solr installation within Tomcat7

2011-03-22 Thread ramdev.wudali
Hi All:
   I have just started using Solr and have it successfully installed within a 
Tomcat7 Webapp server.
I have also indexed documents using the SolrJ interfaces. The following is my 
problem:

I installed Solr under Tomcat7 folders and setup an xml configuration file to 
indicate the Solr home variables as detailed on the wiki (for Solr install 
within TOmcat)
The indexes seem to reside within the solr_home folder under the data folder  
(/data/index )

However when I make a zip copy of the the complete install (i.e. tomcat with 
Solr), and move it to a different machine and unzip/install it,
The index seems to be inaccessible. (I did change the solr.xml configuration 
variables to point to the new location)

Am I missing something that makes Solr "hardcode" the path to the index in an 
install ?

Simple plut, I would like to know how to "transport" an existing install of 
Solr within TOmcat 7 from one machine to another and still have it working.
