Hello.
I'm having a really hard time implementing SolR service in my elgg site.
I'm using the Elgg_solr plugin and tried two versions of it (2.1 from elgg and 2.2.6 from github)
I tried using two different versions of the SolR service (7.1 and 5.2 which worked for ura soul here : https://elgg.org/plugins/1635100/releases/2.1.0#elgg-object-2579773)
I installed the service a couple of times and finally got to a state where i get no errors, but searching in my elgg site returns no results whatsoever, when plugin is deactivated search results are back to normal. that leads me to believe that SolR indeed works and "hijacked" the search but maybe it's not connected properly to the elgg DB.
I tried following all the steps in the project page here and on github i think i got it all but it's not impossible i missed something - would love to hear anything....
If someone added Solr recently (last year) please let know which versions of SolR/elgg_solr did you use
Thanks a lot!!
I'm running locally on a centos VM from windows
elgg site : /var/www/html/elgg/ url : localhost/elgg/
SolR service : /var/solr/

You must log in to post replies.instance : /var/solr/data/rafasol
data : /var/solr/data/rafasol/data
index : /var/solr/data/rafasol/data/index
nowhere (anywhere on the admin page) there is the adress of my elgg site - that leads me to believe it's a problem of connecting solr to the elgg-site DB, but i might be wrong :)
Solr plugin shows you all the statistics in the admin area. You probably need to build the index.
I've already hit the "full reindex" button in the admin page... that didn't help
is that what you meant?
Yes. I suppose you didn't set Some up correctly. Check the logs for errors
