= Installing Solr

:page-shortname: installing-solr

|

|

This section describes how to install Solr.
|
|||
|
|||
You can install Solr in any system where a suitable Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is available, as detailed below. Currently this includes Linux, OS X, and Microsoft Windows. The instructions in this section should work for any platform, with a few exceptions for Windows as noted.
|
|||
|
|||
== Got Java?
|
|||
|
|||
You will need the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.8 or higher. At a command line, check your Java version like this:
|
|||
|
|||
[source,plain]
|
|||
----
|
|||
$ java -version
|
|||
java version "1.8.0_60"
|
|||
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27)
|
|||
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.60-b23, mixed mode)
|
|||
----
|
|||
|
|||
The exact output will vary, but you need to make sure you meet the minimum version requirement. We also recommend choosing a version that is not end-of-life from its vendor. If you don't have the required version, or if the java command is not found, download and install the latest version from Oracle at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html.

== Installing Solr
|
|||
|
|||
Solr is available from the Solr website at http://lucene.apache.org/solr/.
|
|||
|
|||
For Linux/Unix/OSX systems, download the `.tgz` file. For Microsoft Windows systems, download the `.zip` file.
|
|||
|
|||
When getting started, all you need to do is extract the Solr distribution archive to a directory of your choosing. When you're ready to setup Solr for a production environment, please refer to the instructions provided on the <<taking-solr-to-production.adoc#taking-solr-to-production,Taking Solr to Production>> page.
|
|||
|
|||
To keep things simple for now, extract the Solr distribution archive to your local home directory, for instance on Linux, do:
|
|||
|
|||
[source,bash]
|
|||
----
|
|||
cd ~/
|
|||
tar zxf solr-x.y.z.tgz
|
|||
----
|
|||
|
|||
Once extracted, you are now ready to run Solr using the instructions provided in the <<running-solr.adoc#running-solr,Running Solr>> section.
