Apache Solr Version 1.1.0-dev-incubating
Release Notes
========================= Solr Change Log ==============================
$Id$
Introduction
------------
Apache Solr is an open source enterprise search server based on the Lucene Java
search library, with XML/HTTP and JSON APIs, hit highlighting, faceted search,
caching, replication, and a web administration interface. It runs in a Java
servlet container such as Tomcat.
Apache Solr is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software
Foundation (ASF), sponsored by Apache Lucene. Incubation is required of all
@ -24,6 +16,48 @@ a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status
is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code,
it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
See http://incubator.apache.org/solr for more information.
Getting Started
---------------
You need a Java 1.5 VM or later installed.
In this release, there is an example Solr server including a bundled
servlet container in the directory named "example".
See the tutorial at http://incubator.apache.org/solr/tutorial.html
$Id$
================== Release 1.1.0-dev-incubating, YYYYMMDD ==================
Status
------
This is the first release since Solr joined the Incubator, and brings many
new features and performance optimizations including highlighting,
faceted browsing, and JSON/Python/Ruby response formats.
Upgrading from previous Solr versions
-------------------------------------
Older Apache Solr installations can be upgraded by replacing
the relevant war file with the new version. No changes to
the index format or configuration files are needed.
The default version of the Solr XML response syntax has been changed to 2.2
This will affect any clients not explicitly specifying the response version.
By default, Solr will no longer use a searcher that has not fully warmed,
and requests will block in the meantime. To change back to the previous
behavior of using a cold searcher in the event there is no other
warm searcher, see the useColdSearcher config item in solrconfig.xml
The XML response format when adding multiple documents to the collection
in a single <add> command has changed to return a single <result>.
