[Dspace-tech] Solr: Bad Request error

[Hilton Gibson]

Hi All

I keep getting this error when trying to import a solr converted log file.
Anybody had this problem before and know how to solve it.
I can connect to the local solr server using lynx at: http://localhost/solr.
See screenshot attached.

Cheers

Hilton,

Look for Solr exceptions in your tomcat logs for that webapplication.
I didn't write the dspace log importer, the query looks odd, I'm not
sure why it doesn't contain more query parameters, does using that
query directly create the same error in Lynx?

Actually, looking at the URL there, its wrong....

request: http://localhost/solr/update?wt=javabin&version=2.2

should be

request: http://localhost/solr/statistics/update?wt=javabin&version=2.2

Thx. Fixed.
Now I get country seek errors.
But my build is a bit customised.
I removed all geolite build instructions because we are behind a very
restrictive firewall.
Is this the reason ?

[Mark Diggory]

Yes, geolite just downloads a database to lookup IP addresses in, you should let it install.  If you are behind a proxy you will want to follow those instructions as well to assure that the proxy is providing XForwardFor headers.

I manually downloaded the database and extracted it to the config folder.
What firewall rules should I request of our campus firewall administrator ?

Thanks for your help.
I intend to put up a wiki page to help others get solr working behind a firewall and proxy.

Cheers
