Hi all,

I am pretty fresh to solr and I have encountered a problem.

In short:

Is there a way to configure Solr to accept POST queries (instead of GET
only?).
Or: is there some other way to make Solr accept queries longer than 2,000
characters? (Up to 10,000 would be nice)


Longer version:

I have a Solr 1.3 index (served by Tomcat) of People, containing id, name,
address, description etc. This works fine.
Now I want to store and retrieve Events (time location, person), so each
person has 0 or more events.
As I understood it, there is no way to model a has-many relation in Solr (at
least not between two structures with more than 1 properties), so I decided
to store the Events in a separate mysql table.
An example of a query I would like to do is: give me all people that will
have an Event on location x coming month, that have .... in their
description.
I do this in two steps now: first I query the mysql table, then I build a
solr query, with a big OR of all the ids.
The problem is that this can generate long (too long) querystrings.


Thanks in advance,
Cain Jones
