I'm trying to setup an old version of Solr for one of our drupal developers. Apparently only versions 1.x or 3.x will work with the current version of drupal.
I'm setting up solr 3.4.2 under tomcat. And I'm getting this error when I start tomcat and surf to the /solr/admin URL: HTTP Status 404 - missing core name in path type Status report message missing core name in path description The requested resource is not available. I have solr living in /opt: # ls -ld /opt/solr lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 17 May 6 12:48 /opt/solr -> apache-solr-3.6.2 And I have my cores located here: # ls -ld /opt/solr/admin/cores drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 4096 May 6 14:37 /opt/solr/admin/cores Just one core so far, until I can get this working. # ls -l /opt/solr/admin/cores/ total 4 drwxr-xr-x. 5 root root 4096 May 6 14:08 collection1 I have this as my solr.xml file: <solr persistent="false" <cores adminPath="/admin/cores" defaultCoreName="collection1"> <core name="collection1" instanceDir="collection1" /> </cores> </solr> Which is located in these two places: # ls -l /opt/solr/solr.xml /usr/local/tomcat/conf/Catalina/solr.xml -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 169 May 6 14:38 /opt/solr/solr.xml -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 169 May 6 14:38 /usr/local/tomcat/conf/Catalina/solr.xml These are the contents of my /opt/solr directory # ls -l /opt/solr/ total 436 drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 4096 May 6 14:37 admin -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 176647 Dec 18 2012 CHANGES.txt drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 4096 May 6 12:48 client drwxr-xr-x. 9 root root 4096 Dec 18 2012 contrib drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 4096 May 6 12:48 dist drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 4096 May 6 12:48 docs -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1274 May 6 13:28 elevate.xml drwxr-xr-x. 11 root root 4096 May 6 12:48 example -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 81331 Dec 18 2012 LICENSE.txt -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 20828 Dec 18 2012 NOTICE.txt -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 5270 Dec 18 2012 README.txt -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 55644 May 6 13:27 schema.xml -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 60884 May 6 13:27 solrconfig.xml -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 169 May 6 14:38 solr.xml Yet, when I bounce tomcat, this is the result that I get: HTTP Status 404 - missing core name in path type Status report message missing core name in path description The requested resource is not available.
