Know that although the ISAP_Redirector is a stable and mature piece of software, it's not super-actively maintained. Bugs are fixed and new features added, but only very occassionally. > Since I am somewhat new to java as well, could someone give me requirements > to >develop with solr/lucene for java?

Any Servlet 2.3 compliant container should work, so Tomcat 5.x or later, Jetty 5.x or later, recent (<3 years old) versions of WebSphere or Weblogic, all should be fine. I'm biased towards Tomcat as the preferred container, but that's just me ;) Eclipse should also be OK as a development platform, > Also, what drawbacks or limitations do you see if I use windows server/IIS > with >Tomcat/sobr? Drawbacks or limitations compared to what other approach? Yoav -- Yoav Shapira Senior Architect Nimalex LLC 1 Mifflin Place, Suite 310 Cambridge, MA, USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] / www.yoavshapira.com
