Access & Testing ¶

To verify that the server is running correctly, follow these steps:

Verify the administrative web interface is up at http://54.173.29.102:8983/solr/#/ (Substitute the IP address of your Solr instance instead of 54.173.29.102)
Go to http://54.173.29.102:8983/solr/#/gforge_components/query
Replace the q input with the following and press execute query: component_name:Physics
Alternatively, copy this string into a browser: http://54.173.29.102:8983/solr/gforge_components/select?q=component_name:Physics&wt=json&indent=true

Output:

{
  "responseHeader":{
    "status":0,
    "QTime":7,
    "params":{
      "q":"component_name:Physics",
      "indent":"true",
      "wt":"json"}},
  "response":{"numFound":1,"start":0,"docs":[
      {
        "group_id":"6",
        "component_name":"Physics",
        "id":"2",
        "group_name":"Low Heat Loss Transformer",
        "unix_group_name":"lowheatlosstran",
        "is_public":false,
        "_version_":1518308270913093632}]
}}

Go to http://54.173.29.102:8983/solr/#/gforge_projects/query
Replace the q input with the following and press execute query: %3A
Alternatively, copy this string into a browser: http://54.173.29.102:8983/solr/gforge_projects/select?q=*%3A*&wt=json&indent=true

Output: (no projects defined in database, so no results)

  "response":{"numFound":0,"start":0,"docs":[]
  }}

Go to http://54.173.29.102:8983/solr/#/gforge_services/query
Replace the q input with the following and press execute query: group_name:Low*
Alternatively, copy this string into a browser: http://54.173.29.102:8983/solr/gforge_services/select?q=group_name:Low*&wt=json&indent=true

Machine Type ¶

Machine Type:	m4.large
AMI base image:
east:
west:

Installed software:

Solr software installed: 5.3.1.

The deployment script for Solr leverages the installation script provided by the Solr distribution. For a good description of the Solr installation process see https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Taking+Solr+to+Production

The Solr script performs the following:

Creates a user ‘solr’
Installs the Solr software in /opt/solr
Configures Solr data (home) directory to: /var/solr/data
Installs a startup script

The deployment script performs these steps:

Downloads gforge Solr configuration files from https://bitbucket.org/DigitalMfgCommons/dmcsolr.git
Downloads Solr distribution from http://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/solr/5.3.1/solr-5.3.1.tgz
Initiates the Solr installation script
Unpacks the gforge Solr configuration files and copies them to /var/solr/data
Restarts Solr
