This document is intended as a guide to quickly deploy and test a system composed of the OODT File Manager and Solr. For a more in-depth discussion of the Solr File manager architecture and customization, see the complete Solr File Manager guideManager Developer's Guide.

We assume thet the system is deployed on a Unix platform (including Mac-OSX), and that the user has basic familiarity with the Unix operating system. The installation can take place in any directory on the system to where the user has access, for example under '/usr/local/oodt'. To install under any other directory, simply replace '/usr/local/oodt' with your custom path in the instructions below.

...

• Download and install a Solr version of 4.X or above (Please note that Solr 4.3 and higher may require logging configuration):

cp solr-4.2.0.tar /usr/local/oodt/.
cd /usr/local/oodt
tar xvf solr-4.2.0.tar
ln -s ./solr-4.2.0 ./solr

• Install the Solr war file into the Tomcat directory (note that the Solr distribution must be renamed to solr.war as in the example command abovebelow):

cp /usr/local/oodt/solr/dist/solr-4.2.0.war /usr/local/oodt/apache-tomcat/webapps/solr.war
