Hoss Man commented on SOLR-127:
-------------------------------
bq. Just noticed a small (and functionally irrelevant) typo in solrconfig.xml
of the example dir:
that was intentional actually ... if you uncomment that line, you have to
comment out the line below it which is an open <httpCaching> tag ... the
closing tag is much farther down after the comments and the commented out
nested <cacheControl> block. i figured it would be more obvious for people to
deal with just those two lines then to have that never304="true" example be a
self closing tag and make people scroll down to find the other close tag to get
rid of it.

> an offhand comment I saw recently reminded me of something that really bugged
> me about the serach solution i used *before* Solr -- it didn't play nicely
> with HTTP caches that might be sitting in front of it.
> at the moment, Solr doesn't put in particularly usefull info in the HTTP
> Response headers to aid in caching (ie: Last-Modified), responds to all HEAD
> requests with a 400, and doesn't do anything special with If-Modified-Since.
> t the very least, we can set a Last-Modified based on when the current
> IndexReder was open (if not the Date on the IndexReader) and use the same
> info to determing how to respond to If-Modified-Since requests.
> (for the record, i think the reason this hasn't occured to me in the 2+ years
> i've been using Solr, is because with the internal caching, i've yet to need
> to put a proxy cache in front of Solr)
