The Islandora Solr Search module is packaged with files that will support Islandora solution packs, but these can be modified if you are familiar with Solr.   Specifically the Solr schema and corresponding Gsearch XSLT are a good starting point even if you do not use the Solr Search module.  Additional information about Solr is presented in Chapter 4: Search and Discovery in Islandora (The Solr Module).

Code Block
languagebash
$ unzip fedoragsearch-2.6.zip
$ cd fedoragsearch-2.6.zip
$ cp -v fedoragsearch.war /usr/local/fedora/tomcat/webapps

...


5. Edit the file $FEDORA_HOME/server/config/fedora-users.xml to add an additional user:

Code Block
languagexml
<user name="fgsAdmin" password="[password]">
   <attribute name="fedoraRole">
     <value>administrator</value>
   </attribute>
  </user>


6. Restart Fedora to deploy GSearch and Solr

Note

Gsearch properties files are sensitive.  A space after the text at the end of a line may cause that entry to fail.

 

78. Edit $FEDORA_HOME/tomcat/webapps/fedoragsearch/FgsConfig/fgsconfig-basic.xml (replace 'fgsconfig-basic.properties' with 'fgsconfig-basic-for-islandora.properties'):

Code Block
languagetext
-- <property file="fgsconfig-basic.properties" />
-- <copy file="fgsconfig-basic.properties" tofile="fgsconfig-basic-${configDisplayName}.properties" preservelastmodified="true" />
-- <copy file="fgsconfig-basic.properties" tofile="${templateConfigPath}/${configDisplayName}/${finalConfigName}/fgsconfig-basic-${configDisplayName}.properties" preservelastmodified="true" />


++ <property file="fgsconfig-basic-for-islandora.properties" />
++ <copy file="fgsconfig-basic-for-islandora.properties" tofile="fgsconfig-basic-${configDisplayName}.properties" preservelastmodified="true" />
++ <copy file="fgsconfig-basic-for-islandora.properties" tofile="${templateConfigPath}/${configDisplayName}/${finalConfigName}/fgsconfig-basic-${configDisplayName}.properties" preservelastmodified="true" />


89. Navigate to $FEDORA_HOME/tomcat/webapps/fedoragsearch/FgsConfig/and run Apache ant on fgsconfig-basic.xml

Code Block
languagebash
$ cd $FEDORA_HOME/usr/local/fedora/tomcat/webapps/fedoragsearch/FgsConfig/
$ ant -f fgsconfig-basic.xml


910. Rename the current Solr schema.xml file to schema.bak

Code Block
languagebash
$ mv -v $FEDORA_HOME/usr/local/fedora/solr/collection1/conf/schema.xml $FEDORA_HOME/solr/collection1/conf/schema.bak


1011.  Copy the new, ant-generated Solr schema into place as schema.xml

Code Block
languagebash
$ cp -v $FEDORA_HOME/usr/local/fedora/tomcat/webapps/fedoragsearch/WEB-INF/classes/fgsconfigFinal/index/FgsIndex/conf/schema-4.2.0-for-fgs-2.6.xml $FEDORA_HOME/solr/collection1/conf/schema.xml


11. Restart Fedora.12. Create a context file for Solr at /usr/local/fedora/tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/solr.xml

Code Block
languagebashxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context docBase="$ /usr/local/fedora/tomcat/binwebapps/shutdown.sh

$ cd solr.war" debug="0" crossContext="true">
  <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String" value="/usr/local/fedora/solr" override="true"/>
</Context>


13. Restart Fedora.

Code Block
languagebash
$ /usr/local/fedora/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh

$ && /usr/local/fedora/tomcat/bin/startup.sh
