Apache Solr is an open-source search platform used to build search applications. It has a powerful full-text search engine and is highly scalable. Here's a step-by-step tutorial on how to install Apache Solr on FreeBSD Latest.
Before we install Apache Solr, you need to ensure that you have the following:
Step 1: Update the System
Before we start, we need to ensure that our FreeBSD Latest system is up-to-date. Run the following command to update the package database:
sudo pkg update
Step 2: Install Apache Solr
We will install Apache Solr using the pkg package manager. Run the following command to install it:
sudo pkg install solr
Step 3: Start Apache Solr
After the installation, we need to start the Apache Solr service. Run the following command to start the solr service:
sudo service solr start
By default, solr runs on port 8983. You can verify if the service is running using the following command:
sudo service solr status
Step 4: Accessing the Solr Web Interface
Now that Apache Solr is running, we can access the web interface to manage it. Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:8983/solr/#/. You should see the Apache Solr dashboard.
That's it! You have successfully installed Apache Solr on FreeBSD Latest. You can now start using it to build search applications.
