If you are installing the Server and the Common Apache Solr Search Server on separate computers, you must perform additional steps to configure the two servers to operate together. There are two possible configuration methods: disabling remote streaming or sharing the indexing directory. It is recommended to configure by disabling remote streaming.
Disabling Remote Streaming
This configuration method allows content to index over HTTP.
- On the application server, stop the Collaboration service.
- Open the [Install Location]\Collaboration\conf\globalindexer.init.xml file with Notepad.
- Disable the remoteStreamingEnabled parameter by changing the value to the following:
<remoteStreamingEnabled>false</remoteStreamingEnabled>
- Save and close the globalindexer.init.xml file.
- If the [Install Location]\Collaboration\log\bad_oids-indexer.log exists, delete it.
- Start the Collaboration service.
Sharing the Indexing Directory for Microsoft SQL Server
This configuration method allows content to index over the network. Implementing this method requires that a folder on the application server be shared and accessible by the search server.
- On the application server, navigate to the [Install Location]\Collaboration\search folder.
- Right-click on the temp folder and select tab.
- Click Share....
- Select Everyone from the drop-down menu.
- Click Add.
- Click Share. Note the Share name (e.g., temp).
- Click Done.
- Click Close.
- Stop the Collaboration service.
- Open the [Install Location]\Collaboration\conf\globalindexer.init.xml file with Notepad.
- Change the <tmpindexdirectory> and <solrStreamingDirectory> parameter values to \\[FQDN]\[share], where [FQDN] is the fully qualified domain name of the application server and [share] is the name of the share you noted in Step 3 or 12. For example, if your FQDN is "yourcompanyname.company.com" and your share is "temp", change the parameters to the following:
<tmpindexdirectory>
\\yourcompanyname.company.com\temp</tmpindexdirectory>
<solrStreamingDirectory>\\yourcompanyname.company.com\temp</solrStreamingDirectory>
- Save and close the globalindexer.init.xml file.
- If the [Install Location]\Collaboration\log\bad_oids-indexer.log exists, delete it.
- Start the Collaboration service.
