Apache Solr Admin on Tomcat Deployed in WebApps Directory
- by KM01
I am trying to get Apache Solr to work on Redhat6 and Tomcat6 (using these instructions), but get this error when browsing to the admin section, http://localhost:8080/solr-example/admin:
HTTP Status 404 - missing core name in path
type Status report
message missing core name in path
description The requested resource (missing core name in path) is not
available.
http://localhost:8080/solr-example loads fine, with a link to "Solr Admin."
My setup is as follows:
tomcat6: /etc/tomcat6
Solr: /app/solr/example
I have a solr-example.xml in /etc/tomcat6/Catalina/localhost/, which reads:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Context docBase="/app/solr/example/apache-solr-3.4.0.war" debug="0" crossContext="true">
<Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String" value="/app/solr/example" override="true"/>
</Context>
I don't see anything in the logs (/var/log/tomcat6) ... only entires in catalina.out are regarding the starting and stopping of tomcat6.
My questions are:
1.What else do I need to do to get "Solr Admin" to work under Tomcat?
2.Where are these "cores" supposed to be specified? I see an entry in /app/solr/example/solr/solr.xml ?
<solr persistent="false">
adminPath: RequestHandler path to manage cores.
If 'null' (or absent), cores will not be manageable via request handler
<cores adminPath="/admin/cores" defaultCoreName="collection1">
<core name="collection1" instanceDir="." />
</cores>
</solr>
3.How do I got about ensuring that logs are working correctly? I can't find logs that contain mention of the 404 above.
Update in response to @quanta's comment:
Downloaded former (apache-solr-3.4.0.tgz)
dataDir was not set, now set to: <dataDir>${solr.data.dir:../solr/data}</dataDir>

catalina.out contains no indication of the above error
