Alfresco Search Services 1.3.0.1 doesn't search

davidemd

Hello,

I have Alfresco Community - 6.1.2 (r4fe1d0d0-b205) with Alfresco Search Services 1.3.0.1 installed with the distribution zips.
I followed "Installing and configuring Alfresco Search Services" instructions but the search function doesn't work. I configured it with mutual TLS. My OS is Suse SLES 12 sp4, openJDK 11.

When I try search anything the result is always nothing. Catalina log writes this: Catalina Error 

My alfresco-global.properties:

# SOLR
index.subsystem.name=solr6
solr.secureComms=https
solr.host=hostname
solr.port=8983

Hi,

thanks for these 2 excellent documents, I have already found several interesting documents signed by Angel. But, in this case, I couldn't solve it in this way.

I followed all the installation and configuration steps in both Alfresco.war and Alfresco Search Services. Everything seems to be fine according to Alfresco installation guides and Angel articles.

Finally, I regenerated the keystores and certificates using generate_keystores.sh script instead of alfresco-ssl-generator tool. It's important remember copying the password.properties files to solrhome/keystore and cores /conf path, at the beginning I wasn't do it and the Solr6 start was failing. However , the error in Solr log is clear and easy to solve: 

Caused by: org.apache.solr.core.SolrResourceNotFoundException: Can't find resource '/opt/alfresco/alfresco-search-services/solrhome/keystore/ssl-keystore-passwords.properties' in classpath or '/opt/alfresco/alfresco-search-services/solrhome/archive'

I hope this could help to anyone with the same issue. 

Thanks & Regards.

David.
