Dear Trevor,

Thank you.

From starting, I followed the URL you provided. I thought if any archivesspace version or OS specific end to end instillation guide would be helpful

for example - https://github.com/timpetro/archivesspace-install/blob/de6ffca31771744934a64bccee40e1f7cd71c982/Install%20ArchivesSpace%20on%20Ubuntu.txt

But anyway, I am getting below error. Could you please let me know how to resolve this issue

Have you installed Solr? A separate Solr instance is required for versions 3.2+:

Yes, I have installed Solr 9 before running the database script, it is working fine.

Also done configset and created new instance as below:

sudo mkdir -p ./server/solr/configsets/archivesspace/conf

sudo cp -r /home/asuser/archivesspace/solr/* /opt/solr/server/solr/configsets/archivesspace/conf/

systemctl start solr

sudo su - solr -c "/opt/solr/bin/solr create -c archivesspace -n archivesspace"

The error seems to be this:

Solr checksum verification failed (schema): expected [4d4849771a91d677f255b638cbefa8b8d67a236c56c645bb13c2842480614d78] got [0c01bf58f6889de7451a1f659268f9e3bfe35bd1c167d9034fc8f9eee06c7e11]

Googling that led me to this response to a similar questions on the AS member list archives (the archives are public, not limited to member orgs):

I have added below settings in archivesspace/config/config.rb. But still i am getting the same error.

AppConfig[:solr_url] = "http://localhost:8983/solr/#/~cores/archivesspace"

AppConfig[:solr_verify_checksums] = true

AppConfig[:use_jetty_shutdown_handler] = true
AppConfig[:jetty_shutdown_path] = "/xkcd"

Please let me know if this is correct.

Regards,

Arumugam

Hi,

You may want to just manually confirm that your Solr core schema matches what ArchivesSpace is expecting:

curl "http://localhost:8983/solr/archivesspace/admin/file?wt=json&file=schema.xml&contentType=application%2Fxml%3Bcharset%3Dutf-8" > /tmp/schema.xml

diff /home/asuser/archivesspace/solr/schema.xml /tmp/schema.xml

Assuming you did indeed create the core called "archivesspace" with the ASpace solr config files and Solr is running on localhost 8983 (which does appear to be the case) you want the solr_url to be:

AppConfig[:solr_url] = "http://localhost:8983/solr/archivesspace"
