How to change base path of Solr example?

  • 772

I've followed the Solr tutorial, but the URL they make you use is:

http://localhost:8983/solr/

What is the most simple way to change this URL to:

http://localhost:8983/foobar/
configuration jetty solr

    I think I figured it out myself. What I did was, inside the example directory, rename

    webapps/solr.war

    to

    webapps/foobar.war

    Also, I changed a line in solr/conf/scripts.conf to

    webapp_name=foobar

  2. If you are running Solr with Jetty, you can change it in webdefault.xml. Detailed instructions here

  3. Seems a little different in 2014 with Solr 4.10:

    From the "example" directory or your equivalent:

    1. edit contexts/solr-jetty-context.xml <Set name="contextPath"><SystemProperty name="hostContext" default="/foobar"/></Set>
    2. edit solr/collectionName/conf/scripts.conf : change webapp_name=foobar
    3. java -jar start.jar

    I'm not sure where the webapp_name parameter is used but it seems reasonable to keep this.
