Apache Solr is a powerful search engine that provides scalable and efficient search capabilities for web applications. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the installation process of Apache Solr on Clear Linux Latest.
Before you start with the installation process, you need to make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
First, you need to download the latest version of Apache Solr from the official website by using the following command:
$ wget https://downloads.apache.org/lucene/solr/<version>/solr-<version>.tgz
Replace <version> with the latest version number of Apache Solr. For example, if the latest version is 8.9.0, the command would be:
$ wget https://downloads.apache.org/lucene/solr/8.9.0/solr-8.9.0.tgz
Once the download is complete, you can extract the downloaded Apache Solr file using the following command:
$ tar -xvf solr-<version>.tgz
Replace <version> with the version number of Apache Solr that you have downloaded. For example,
$ tar -xvf solr-8.9.0.tgz
This will create a solr-<version> directory in your current working directory.
To install Apache Solr, you need to navigate to the solr-<version>/bin directory and execute the following command:
$ sudo ./install_solr_service.sh solr-<version>.tgz
Replace <version> with the version of Apache Solr that you have downloaded. For example,
$ sudo ./install_solr_service.sh solr-8.9.0.tgz
This command will install Apache Solr as a system service, which means that it will start automatically when the system boots up.
To start Apache Solr, you need to execute the following command:
$ sudo systemctl start solr.service
This will start the Apache Solr service. You can check the status of the service by executing the following command:
$ sudo systemctl status solr.service
To verify that Apache Solr is running, you can open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8983/solr/. This will open the Apache Solr web interface, where you can perform various search queries and manage the search index.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Apache Solr on Clear Linux Latest. Now you can start building powerful and scalable search capabilities for your web applications.
