I need to do this as the index is created on one
machine(client) to be used by solr server for
searching. The solr server will refer to this index
file by some http url. We cannot store this index file
on the solr server.
Solr needs file-level access to the Lucene index, perhaps by some
shared disk - but not via HTTP.
You certainly can use an indexed created by pure Java Lucene in Solr,
provided the schema.xml jives with how the index is structured and is
to be queried.
