Using Apache Solr for indexing

Deploying in tomcat

The solr wiki has instructions - the steps (additional to other bedework configuration) are:

  1. Copy into the tomcat webapps directory
  2. From the unpacked solr distribution,
    cp -r example/solr to-your-quickstart
    
  3. Add a solr.xml file to the conf/Catalina/localhost directory with the following content
    <Context docBase="f:/solr.war" debug="0" crossContext="true" >
       <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String" value="your path to solr" override="true" />
    </Context>
