Re: [cfaussie] using Solr in a multi instance configuration

Yeah, it's another JEE deployment. Looks like CF is running SOLR on a Jetty servlet engine. It may be a case of going into /opt/webapps/ and making a copy of solr.war and call it something new (say uat.war), and then restarting it. You will have to look at having seperate solr.home's defined for

Barry, this is indeed interesting. I've read the other replies so far, and I have some other thoughts. I've not tried to install solr on a server where I installed CF in multiserver mode, but looking at the install guide, it's a little unclear. It says in the discussion of J2EE deployment (which

Thanks for the info Mark, and yes you can point coldfusion to a seperate solr instance. Charlie, when the initial install was done, it was a multiserver deployment. Yes it goes in the directory you mention below, in the default cfusion instance in: /opt/jrun4/servers/cfusion/.. The Solr part is

I had a look the other day, and it looks like cf's solr configuration is multi core, so you can set up more than one index on there. You don't need a whole other solr instance running. I'm doing a lot of solr work at the moment, and found it much easier to simply setup an instance of the latest

Yes, we have several indexes in Solr e.g. majors papers The only problem is, our second instance needs to use the same collection names which means we can't just point the second instance to the same place. On Tue, Apr 5, 2011 at 9:42 AM, Mark Mandel mark.man...@gmail.com wrote: I had a look

Oh, I think I see the issue. You want to deploy a second instance of solr, but are not sure how to tell each instance to have different solr homes. Is that correct? Mark Sent from my mobile device. On 05/04/2011 8:07 AM, Barry Chesterman barrychester...@gmail.com wrote: -- You received this

Deploying a second instance of solr was my idea also, but I wasn't sure if this was the right way to go about it or not (I'm also not exactly sure how you go about deploying a second instance of Solr either) - is it a copy directory and modify some files type exercise, or is it a run the solr
