Can anyone confirm indexed_search working on a fresh install of 6.2.0?
It would help me a lot to know, because in this case I have to look
for an error in my configuration.
Talking to myself - I've got no answers, except 2 private emails with a
message similar to "Don't bother with 6.2.0 - you'll lose all of your hair"
Since you mentioned in your original post that EXT:solr wasn't working
with TYPO3 6.2 you already got a reply from Olivier Dobberkau that the
current git version of solr is working with 6.2. They will probably
release a new community version around the time TYPO3 CMS 6.2 is released.
Well, I'm already past that point, and, to be honest, I didn't have any
serious problems with community extensions. My only personal blocker is
core stuff: Indexd Search. IS issues on Forge just keep untouched, since
all people knowing more seem to use 4.5 with Solr. This might work for
them, but it will kill the whole product in the end.
Indexed Search issues should be fixed, but that is also the case for a
lot of other issues. In a community where most stuff is done voluntarily
(and unpaid) many devs "scratch their own itches".
Every search solution has its pros and cons, but in many cases solr may
very well prove to be better than Indexed Search. The reasons are quite
simple that the engine (the solr server part) is the work of a large
community of search specialists. The indexing solution is often slightly
better than the concept used by IS.
IS could be enough for a small site. If you have troubles setting it up
an article by Xavier Perseguers [1] will be helpful.
If you find problems with IS, please see if there is already a forge
issue for it; if not please file one.
Create some buzz for the specific problems you encounter, ask people to
vote for the issues that are blocking for you. This makes it more likely
that devs will take a look at the issue.
