many third party parsers (like xerces I think) handle this automatically but in 
general they should be removed.

I'm pretty sure that's a BOM:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_Order_Mark

The web.xml in src/webapp also seems to have it there so I would assume that 
any/all builds from the solr kit would have the same problem no matter where 
you downloaded it from.

It looks like the BOM got checked in here:

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/solr/trunk/src/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml?r1=501174&r2=508859&diff_format=h

many third party parsers (like xerces I think) handle this automatically but in

It was one I downloaded.

However, a quick inspection of the source file indicates the same flaw in the 
source web.xml:

other app servers/xml parsers are smart enough to ignore the leading characters 
rather than blowing chunks on them.

Was this a .war you downloaded from:
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/lucene/solr/

or one you built from:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/solr/

I had some trouble getting the current production build (1.2.0) working
on 10gR3 (10.1.3.0.0).

I had to remove 3 bad characters off of the front of the web.xml file
and re-jar the WAR file.  It worked perfectly after that minor

solr and Oracle 10g App Server

2007-07-23 Thread Richard Eibrand

Hi,

I've tried to deploy the solr war file in Oracle 10G, but keep getting
the following error:

" Failed in uploading archive. Invalid archive file: Start of root
element expected."

I've searched the mailing lists and google'd around for any pointers,
but have not had any luck finding anything immediately useful.

The version of solr I am using is 1.2.0 - and Oracle 10g App Server on
Solaris 10.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

R
