Basic Authentication for Admin GUI
Hello, I'm trying to set up a basic authentication for the admin function in the new solr GUI. For this I have to give the appropriate url-pattern, e.g. url-pattern//url-pattern will match every URL in my solr server. But the GUI now runs all administrative tasks under /#/ and there is no particular /admin/ branch anymore. Does anybody know how to deal with that situation? Can I move the administration to a new admin directory? Best regards Thomas Fischer
Configuration problem
Hello, for some reason I have problems to get my local solr system to run (MacBook, tomcat 6.0.35). The setting is solr directories (I use different solr versions at the same time): /srv/solr/solr4.6.1 is the solr home, in solr home is a file solr.xml of the new discovery type (no cores), and inside the core directories are empty files core.properties and symbolic links to the universal conf directory. solr webapps (I use very different webapps simultaneously): /srv/www/webapps/solr/solr4.6.1 is the solr webapp I tried to convey this information to the tomcat server by putting a file solr4.6.1.xml into the cataiina/localhost folder with the contents ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? Context docBase=/srv/www/webapps/solr/solr4.6.1 debug=0 crossContext=true Environment name=solr/home type=java.lang.String value=/srv/solr/solr4.6.1 override=true/ /Context The Tomcat Manager shows solr4.6.1 as started, but following the given link gives an error with the message: SolrCore 'collection1' is not available due to init failure: Could not load config file /srv/solr4.6.1/collection1/solrconfig.xml which is plausible, since 1. there is no folder /srv/solr4.6.1/collection1 and 2.for the actual cores solrconfig.xml is inside of /srv/solr4.6.1/cores/geo/conf/ But why does Tomcat try to find a solrconfig.xml there? The problem persists if I start tomcat with -Dsolr.solr.home=/srv/solr/solr4.6.1, it seems that the system just ignores the solr home setting. Can somebody give me a hint what I'm doing wrong? Best regards Thomas P.S.: Is there a way to stop Tomcat from throwing these errors into my face threefold: once as heading (h1!), once as message and once as description?

Re: Problems with ICUCollationField
Hmm, for standardization of text fields, collation might be a little awkward. I arrived there after using custom rules for a while (see RuleBasedCollator on http://wiki.apache.org/solr/UnicodeCollation) and then being told For better performance, less memory usage, and support for more locales, you can add the analysis-extras contrib and use ICUCollationKeyFilterFactory instead. (on the same page under ICU Collation). For your german umlauts, what do you mean by standardize? is this to achieve equivalency of e.g. oe to ö in your search terms? That is the main point, but I might also need the additional normalization of combined characters like o+ ̈ = ö and probably similar constructions for other languages (like Hungarian). In that case, a simpler approach would be to put GermanNormalizationFilterFactory in your chain: http://lucene.apache.org/core/4_6_1/analyzers-common/org/apache/lucene/analysis/de/GermanNormalizationFilter.html I'll see how far I get with this, but from the description • 'ä', 'ö', 'ü' are replaced by 'a', 'o', 'u', respectively. • 'ae' and 'oe' are replaced by 'a', and 'o', respectively. this seems to be too far-reaching a reduction: while the identification ä=ae is not very serious and rarely misleading, ä=a might pack words together that shouldn't be, Äsen and Asen are quite different concepts, In general, the deprecation of ICUCollationKeyFilterFactory doesn't seem to be really thought through.

Re: solr.home
Hi Shawn, thanks for looking into this. I am using a start-up script for Tomcat, and in that script there was actually the line export JAVA_OPTS=$JAVA_OPTS -Dsolr.solr.home='/srv/solr' which most likely created the problem. With export JAVA_OPTS=$JAVA_OPTS -Dsolr.solr.home=/srv/solr I get INFO: No /solr/home in JNDI INFO: using system property solr.solr.home: /srv/solr and everything seems to work fine, so there obviously was a tightening of the syntax somewhere between solr 1.4 and solr 3.5.

If this is indeed the problem, the newer version is probably interpreting input values much more literally, the old version probably ran the final path value through a parser that took care of removing the quotes for you, but that parser also removed certain characters that some users actually needed. Notice that the quotes are interspersed in the full solr.xml path in your 1.4 log. Thanks, Shawn

wildcard search: Update
Hello, I'm still struggling with wildcard search in solr. I installed the ComplexPhraseQueryParser which essentially accomplishes what I'm looking for: I can search in my field GOK using phrases with wildcards, e.g. GOK:POF 15?. This works with either solr 1.4.2 or 3.3. What irritates me is that this kind of a search throws an exception when there is *no* space, e.g. for GOK:POF15? (useless) or DDC:942.? (meaningful). On the other hand, the search will work if the quotes are omitted: DDC:942.? yields the expected results. An additional source of irritation is the error message: The server encountered an internal error (Unknown query type org.apache.lucene.search.WildcardQuery found in phrase query string POF15? java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown query type org.apache.lucene.search.WildcardQuery found in phrase query string POF1?? at org.apache.lucene.queryParser.ComplexPhraseQueryParser$ComplexPhraseQuery.rewrite I don' understand why the query type org.apache.lucene.search.WildcardQuery is unknown (this is contained in lucene-core-2.9.3.jar), nor what it means that it is 'found in phrase query string POF15?' Can anybody give me a hint how to handle this problem (apart from erasing the quotes if no whitespace is present)? Cheers Thomas

This is not only obnoxiously loud (white on grey with oversized fonts), but less useful than it should be. Instead of telling the user where the error occurred (i.e. while reading which file, which column at which line) it unravels the stack. This is useless if the program just choked on some unexpected input, like a typo in a schema of config file or an invalid character in a file to be indexed. I don't know if this is due to the Tomcat, the logging system of solr itself, but it is annoying. And yes, I've seen something like this before and found the error not by inspecting solr but by opening the suspected files with an appropriate browser (e.g. Firefox) which tells me exactly where something goes wrong.

Re: wildcard search
Hi Ahmet, so I created a fake license ComplexPhrase-LICENSE-MIT.txt for ComplexPhrase and tried again, which ran through successfully, I hope this is OK. I didn't used it with solr 3.2. I will check about it. So your GOK field already contains the list as multivalued. Then you can use prefix query parser plugin for this. Just make sure that field type of GOK is string not text. q={!prefix f=GOK}IA 3 should be equivalent to {!complexphrase}GOK:IA 3* I'll try that. But my search requests come from a pazpar2 system and are directed against different clients, which all get requests of the form GOK:IA 32*, so in some sense this is better for me. I found two problems: – In the solr 1.4.2 version I'm testing the request IA 32* works, but GOK:IA 32* will not. Is this somehow related to the indexing of that field? – The other is that IA320 (on 1.4.2) and GOK:IA320 (on 3.2) will throw an exception: description The server encountered an internal error (Unknown query type org.apache.lucene.search.PhraseQuery found in phrase query string IA620 java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown query type org.apache.lucene.search.PhraseQuery found in phrase query string IA620 at org.apache.lucene.queryParser.ComplexPhraseQueryParser Cheers Thomas
Re: wildcard search
Hi Ahmet, I don't use it myself (but I will soon), so I may be wrong, but did you try to use the ComplexPhraseQueryParser : ComplexPhraseQueryParser QueryParser which permits complex phrase query syntax eg (john jon jonathan~) peters*. It seems that you could do such type of queries : GOK:IA 38* yes that sounds interesting. But I don't know how to get and install it into solr. Cam you give me a hint? https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1604 I tried to follow this recipe, adapting it to the solr 3.2 I am testing right now. The first try gave me a message [java] !!! Couldn't get license file for /Installer/solr/apache-solr-3.2.0/solr/lib/ComplexPhrase-1.0.jar [java] At least one file does not have a license, or it's license name is not in the proper format. See the logs. BUILD FAILED so I created a fake license ComplexPhrase-LICENSE-MIT.txt for ComplexPhrase and tried again, which ran through successfully, I hope this is OK. I registered queryparser not to solrhome/conf/solrconfig.xml (no such thing, I'm running multiple cores) but to solrhome/cores/lit/conf/solrconfig.xml and could search successfully for {!complexphrase}GOK:IC 62* But it seems that you can achieve what you want with vanilla solr. I don't follow the multivalued part in your example but you can tokenize IA 300; IC 330; IA 317; IA 318 into these 4 tokens IA 300 IC 330 IA 314 IA 318 I didn't have to split them up, they are already separated as field with multiValued=true. But I need to be able to search for IA 310 - IA 319 with one call, {!complexphrase}GOK:IA 31? will do this now, or even for {!complexphrase}GOK:IA 3* to catch all those in one go. Thanks, this helped a lot Thomas
Re: wildcard search
Hi Erick, I have a multivalued field GOK (local classification scheme) with separate entries of the sort IA 300; IC 330; IA 317; IA 318, i.e. 1 to 3 capital characters, space, 3 digits. I want to be able to perform a truncated search on that field: either just the string before the space, or a combination of that string with 1 or 2 digits, something like: GOK:IA or GOK:IA 3* or GOK:IA 31? My problem is the clash between the phrase (GOK:IA 317 works) and the wildcards. As a start I tried as type fieldType name=text class=solr.TextField positionIncrementGap=100 autoGeneratePhraseQueries=true from the solr 3.2 distribution schema (apache-solr-3.2.0/example/solr/conf/schema.xml), the field is just field name=GOK type=text multiValued=true/ BTW, I have another field DDC with entries of the form t1:086643 with analogous requirements which yields similar problems due to the colon, also indexed as text. Here also DDC:T1\:086643 works, but not DDC:T1\:08664? Thanks in advance Thomas Yes there is, but you haven't provided enough information to make a suggestion. What isthe fieldType definition?
