Hi Everyone, I've managed to successfully install solr on my server, and it's running and I have created a core and indexed some 1000 pdf files... Searches work, and so far, so good.
There are two issues that I can't resolve even though I have tried for a good 8 hours, so I feel I can hopefully reach out having tried myself before asking stupid questions. Environment: - Ubuntu OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 11.0.4 11.0.4+11-post-Ubuntu-1ubuntu218.04.3 - Processors8 - Args-DSTOP.KEY=solrrocks-DSTOP.PORT=9539-Djetty.home=/opt/solr/server -Djetty.port=10539-Dlog4j.configurationFile=file:/var/solr/log4j2.xml -Dsolr.data.home= -Dsolr.default.confdir=/opt/solr/server/solr/configsets/_default/conf -Dsolr.install.dir=/opt/solr-Dsolr.jetty.https.port=10539 -Dsolr.log.dir=/var/solr/logs-Dsolr.log.muteconsole -Dsolr.solr.home=/var/solr/data-Duser.timezone=UTC-XX:+AlwaysPreTouch -XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled-XX:+PerfDisableSharedMem-XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+UseLargePages-XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=250-XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=/opt/solr/bin/oom_solr.sh 10539 /var/solr/logs -Xlog:gc*:file=/var/solr/logs/solr_gc.log:time,uptime:filecount=9,filesize=20M -Xms512m-Xmx512m-Xss256k and my core: CWD: /opt/solr-8.3.0/serverInstance:/var/solr/data/meeting_minutesData: /var/solr/data/meeting_minutes/dataIndex: /var/solr/data/meeting_minutes/data/indexImpl: org.apache.solr.core.NRTCachingDirectoryFactory Issue 1: I want to secure my server with basic authentication (that's why I'm running on port 10539 at the moment, but that's not security ... I've put a file security.json in /opt/solr/server/solr/configsets/_default/conf, but that doesn't do anything. No request for a password when I access the web interface or do searches Any help on that would be highly appreciated. Issue 2: I would like to index a lot of emails that reside on a local imap server (dovecot). I have managed to configure that, and my configuration shows up in the "dataimport" menu on my core (meeting_minutes) in the web interface: <dataConfig> <document> <entity processor="MailEntityProcessor" user="christian" password="******" host= "localhost" protocol="imap" fetchMailsSince="2010-06-30 00:00:00" batchSize= "200" folders="Secretary" processAttachement="false" name="mail_entity"/> </ document> </dataConfig> (the password does of course appear in cleartext in my config file ....) I can execute the command from the web interface, and get the message Last Update: 21:08:18 Requests: 0 , Fetched: 0 , Skipped: 0 , Processed: 0 My dovecot server shows nothing in the logs, and I can change the password and don't get any error message - solr always claims it executed, and that there were 0 Fetched etc. I manually have logged into the dovecot server with imap, and the folder "Secretary" does indeed show up when I list the folders. It appears solr doesn't even try to connect to my dovecot server. I can't use the debug option, as apparently, I have to enable.dih.dataConfigParam has to be set to true, but I don't have the slightest clue where and how to set that. (It took me quite a while to figure out that changing the default port had to be done in /etc/default/ solr.in.sh, rather than in solrconfig.xml...) The performance is great, and I love the stuff that works, but I find it very hard to get solr going, configure it, and get my imap dataConfig going. Any help is greatly appreciated! Best regards, Christian
