Transcription

1 Bitnami Apache Solr for Huawei Enterprise Cloud Description Apache Solr is an open source enterprise search platform from the Apache Lucene project. It includes powerful full-text search, highlighting, dynamic clustering, rich document handling, and geospatial search, and more. How to get started with Solr? NOTE: Replace the CORE-NAME and PORT-NUMBER placeholders in the commands below with actual values. To create a core, use these commands: cd /opt/bitnami/apache-solr sudo./bin/solr create -c CORE-NAME -p PORT-NUMBER To add documents, use these commands: cd /opt/bitnami/apache-solr sudo./bin/post -c CORE-NAME FILES How to start or stop the services? Each Bitnami stack includes a control script that lets you easily stop, start and restart services. The script is located at /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh. Call it without any service name arguments to start all services: sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh start Or use it to restart a single service, such as Apache only, by passing the service name as argument: sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart apache Use this script to stop all services:

2 sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop Restart the services by running the script without any arguments: sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart Obtain a list of available services and operations by running the script without any arguments: sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh How to access the Apache Solr server console? For security reasons, the Apache Solr server console will be accessible only when using as the hostname. To access the server console, it is necessary to create an SSH tunnel by forwarding port 8983 on the Apache Solr server to port 8983 on the local host. An example of configuring the SSH tunnel using PuTTY on Windows is displayed below.

3 While the tunnel is active, you should be able to access the server console through the secure SSH tunnel you created, by browsing to Refer to the FAQ for platform-specific instructions to create the SSH tunnel. How to upload files to the server with SFTP? NOTE: Bitnami applications can be found in /opt/bitnami/apps. When uploading files via SFTP, you must have the server's IP address, username and password or, if you chose to deploy the server with an SSH key instead of a password, you must have the server username and corresponding SSH private key in.ppk format (for Windows) or in.pem format (for Linux and Mac OS X). To obtain the IP address for your server, follow these steps: Log in to the Huawei Cloud Server Console. Navigate to the "Computing -> Elastic Cloud Server" section. Note the public IP address for the server you wish to connect to.

4 Once you have confirmed that you have the IP address and correct SSH credentials for your server, follow the instructions below depending on the platform you wish to use. Although you can use any SFTP/SCP client to transfer files to your server, this guide documents FileZilla (Windows, Linux and Mac OS X), WinSCP (Windows) and Cyberduck (Mac OS X). Using an SSH Key Once you have your server's SSH key, choose your preferred application and follow the steps below to connect to the server using SFTP. FileZilla IMPORTANT: To use FileZilla, your server private key should be in PPK format. Follow these steps: Download and install FileZilla. Launch FileZilla and use the "Edit -> Settings" command to bring up FileZilla's configuration settings. Within the "Connection -> SFTP" section, use the "Add keyfile" command to select the private key file for the server. FileZilla will use

5 this private key to log in to the server. Use the "File -> Site Manager -> New Site" command to bring up the FileZilla Site Manager, where you can set up a connection to your server. Enter your server host name and specify bitnami as the user name.

6 Select "SFTP" as the protocol and "Ask for password" as the logon type. Use the "Connect" button to connect to the server and begin an SFTP session. You might need to accept the server key, by clicking "Yes" or "OK" to proceed. You should now be logged into the /home/bitnami directory on the server. You can now transfer files by dragging and dropping them from the local server window to the remote server window. If you have problems accessing your server, get extra information by use the "Edit -> Settings -> Debug" menu to activate FileZilla's debug log.

7 WinSCP IMPORTANT: To use WinSCP, your server private key should be in PPK format. Follow these steps: Download and install WinSCP. Launch WinSCP and in the "Session" panel, select "SFTP" as the file protocol.

8 Enter your server host name and specify bitnami as the user name. Click the "Advanced " button and within the "SSH -> Authentication -> Authentication parameters" section, select the private key file for the

9 server. WinSCP will use this private key to log in to the server. From the "Session" panel, use the "Login" button to connect to the server and begin an SCP session. You should now be logged into the /home/bitnami directory on the server. You can now transfer files by dragging and dropping them from the local server window to the remote server window. If you need to upload files to a location where the bitnami user doesn't have write permissions, you have two options: Once you have configured WinSCP as described above, click the "Advanced " button and within the "Environment -> Shell" panel, select sudo su - as your shell. This will allow you to upload files using the

10 administrator account. Upload the files to the /home/bitnami directory as usual. Then, connect via SSH and move the files to the desired location with the sudo command, as shown below: sudo mv /home/bitnami/uploaded-file /path/to/desired/location/ Cyberduck IMPORTANT: To use Cyberduck, your server private key should be in PEM format. Follow these steps:

11 Select the "Open Connection" command and specify "SFTP" as the connection protocol. In the connection details panel, under the "More Options" section, enable the "Use Public Key Authentication" option and specify the path to the private key file for the server. Use the "Connect" button to connect to the server and begin an SFTP session. You should now be logged into the /home/bitnami directory on the server. You can now transfer files by dragging and dropping them from the local server window to the remote server window.

12 Using a Password Once you have your server's SSH credentials, choose your preferred application and follow the steps below to connect to the server using SFTP. FileZilla Follow these steps: Download and install FileZilla. Launch FileZilla and use the "File -> Site Manager -> New Site" command to bring up the FileZilla Site Manager, where you can set up a connection to your server. Enter your server host name. Select "SFTP" as the protocol and "Ask for password" as the logon type. Use bitnami as the server username and the password generated during the server deployment process. Use the "Connect" button to connect to the server and begin an SFTP session. You might need to accept the server key, by clicking "Yes" or "OK" to proceed. You should now be logged into the /home/bitnami directory on the server. You can now transfer files by dragging and dropping them from the local server window to the remote server window.

13 If you have problems accessing your server, get extra information by use the "Edit -> Settings -> Debug" menu to activate FileZilla's debug log. WinSCP Follow these steps: Download and install WinSCP. Launch WinSCP and in the "Session" panel, select "SFTP" as the file protocol.

14 Enter your server host name and set bitnami as the server username. From the "Session" panel, use the "Login" button to connect to the server and begin an SCP session. Enter the password when prompted. You should now be logged into the /home/bitnami directory on the server. You can now transfer files by dragging and dropping them from the local server window to the remote server window. Cyberduck Follow these steps:

15 Select the "Open Connection" command and specify "SFTP" as the connection protoco In the connection details panel, enter the server IP address, bitnami as the username, and the password generated during the deployment

16 process Use the "Connect" button to connect to the server and begin an SFTP session. You should now be logged into the /home/bitnami directory on the server. You can now transfer files by dragging and dropping them from the local server window to the remote server window. How to configure the Apache Solr server? Obtain example configuration files by following these steps: sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop solr Change directories to locate the files: cd /opt/bitnami/apache-solr

17 Create Solr home directory /opt/bitnami/apache-solr/example/techproducts/solr by executing the following command: sudo./bin/solr -e techproducts This action creates a set of example configuration files in /opt/bitnami/apache-solr/example/techproducts/solr/techproducts/conf. These are configuration references. Modify these files depending on your server requirements. Access the Solr administration interface via SSH or by opening the port 8983 in the server firewall. Refer to the FAQ for more information on how to configure your server firewall. How to enable the Apache Solr logs? The Apache Solr log files are not enabled by default after version 3.x. To enable the log files, uncomment the following section in the /opt/bitnami/apache-solr/server/etc/jetty.xml file. Remember to restart the server for your changes to take effect. <Ref id="requestlog"> <Set name="requestlog"> <New id="requestlogimpl" class="org.mortbay.jetty.ncsarequestlog"> <Set name="filename"><systemproperty name="jetty.logs" default="./l ogs"/>/yyyy_mm_dd.request.log</set> <Set name="filenamedateformat">yyyy_mm_dd</set> <Set name="retaindays">90</set> <Set name="append">true</set> <Set name="extended">false</set> <Set name="logcookies">false</set> <Set name="logtimezone">gmt</set> </New> </Set> </Ref>
