I would like to do something simi...

I'm considering about adding semantic analysis to my Solr installation, but I don't exactly know where to start. Basically, I'd like Solr to be able to find "similar" words (taken from the body of the indexed documents). For example, if I search for "music", I should be able to query the semantic engine and obtain "rock", "pop", etc. (o...
I'm having some memory issues while using a python script to issue a large solr query. I'm using the solrpy library to interface with the solr server. The query returns approximately 80,000 records. Immediately after issuing the query the python memory footprint as viewed through top balloons to ~190MB. PID USER PR NI VIRT R...
Hi all, I used ubuntu 8.10 as the solr server OS, and set the solr.solr.home=home/huenzhao/search/tomcat6/bin/solr. When I run the tomcat（The tomcat and the solr that I used running on windows XP has no problem）, there has error as : HTTP Status 500 - Severe errors in solr configuration.

So I have a client that needs to be running tomcat for various things (Solr and a webservice as well) and after having a meeting with him and another programmer on the project, I got a little confused. The other programmer was throwing around buzzwords and saying things like "We need to have middleware for tomcat." In response to this, m...
I have installed and configured tomcat+solr on my personal linux machine and windows as well. I was able to get them working fine. I'm very new to Java and how the file structure works. (i.e. knowing where to put war files and what WEB-INF is) So now that I am ready to install solr and configure it on my clients shared hosting plan, the ...

Hi all, I know how to configure solr.home by using tomcat6, but I don't know how to set solr.home by using Glassfish(V2.1).

I have a fairly simple need to do a conditional update in Solr, which is easily accomplished in MySQL. For example, I have 100 documents with a unique field called <id> I am POSTing 10 documents, some of which may be duplicate <id>s, in which case Solr would update the existing records with the same <id>s I have a field called <dateCr...
I am facing scalability issues designing a new Solr cluster and I need to master to be able to handle a relatively high rate of updates with almost no reads - they can be done via slaves. My existing Solr instance is occupying a huge amount of RAM, in fact it started swapping at only 4.5mil docs. I am interested in making the footprint ...
Ok I just setup a dedicated server for my client through his hosting provider. They have plesk installed on there (version 9.2.1) and one of the caveats of this dedicated server is that if i do anything OUTSIDE of the control panel (i.e. use SSH) for any task they do not guarantee support for that software component. That's fine because ...
I have installed a servlet (solr) that requires that I set the variable solr.solr.home equal to solr home. Something like: JAVA_OPTS=-D=solr.solr.home='/usr/share/tomcat/solr' The version of tomcat I am using is running as a service setup through plesk control panel. After googling this I found a page that said I should edit the web.x...

Hi all, There is a problem when I use solr1.3 delta-imports to update the index. I have added the "last_modified" column in the table. After I use the "full-import" command to index the database data, the "dataimport.properties" file contains nothing, and when I use the "delta-import" command to update index, the solr list all the data...
We have a database of movies and series, and as the data comes from many sources of varying reliability, we'd like to be able to do fuzzy string matching on the titles of episodes. We are using Solr for search in our application, but the default matching mechanisms operate on word levels, which is not good enough for short strings, like ...
Hi, I'm doing something like this: Item.find_by_solr('name:ab*') and it says it returns 297 results: => #<ActsAsSolr::SearchResults:0xb6516858 @total_pages=1, @solr_data={:docs=>[doc1, doc2, doc3...]}, :max_score=>1.6935261, :total_pages=>1, :total=>297}, @current_page=1> Item.count_by_solr('name:ab*') also returns 297. Yet when ...
