Pointing to external server for Solr 4 indexes. How can I shut down or uninstall the local Solr 4 index service and prevent it from running at all?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
To disable de Solr4 webapp you should delete tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/solr4.xml context file, along with the WAR file in webapps, I beleive that's enough, then some cleaning should also be done, removing indexes, logs and tomcat temp files
You also have to point your Alfresco instance to the external solr. This configuration is done in the alfresco-global.properties. You have the following lines to modify (please check the documentation to be sure nothing is forgotton):
### Solr indexing ###index.subsystem.name=solr4dir.keystore=${dir.root}/keystoresolr.host=localhostsolr.port.ssl=8443
