This is a very complex migration: many classes had been renamed or
removed, dependencies changed and the solr index type is now aligned to
be a solr cloud repository.
Together with the Solr 5.2 library update, one other dependent library
had been updated as well: httpclient 4.4->4.4.1
Older indexes are migrated from 4_10 to 5_2. However, the new index
structure is more efficient and we recommend to re-index everything.
Please use the index export before you do the update to a large
surrogate xml file. After the update, start with an empty index and then
initialize this with your dump.
work now, at least it does on my network. UPNP code in YaCy can still
be improved though (see TODO comment: make port on gateway configurable
or find free one).
*) removed old code
*) added new lib
*) changed code to work with new lib
besides adjustments in code it makes the servlet settings in web.xml significant.
This applies to solr, gsa and proxy servlet. There is no longer a default setup in code during init (as jetty 9 checks for double definition).
introduced, it was also used for search facets. The generic search
facets are now deduced from generic solr fields which makes jena as tool
for facet semantics superfluous.
solrj.4.6.0 has a bug which prevents the attachment of a remote solr (as
tested with a SolrCloud). See bug report
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5532
This bug shall be fixed in Solr 4.6.1.
Fortunately, solrj-4.5.1 works together with solr-4.6.0 thus the current
index does not need to be changed.
- this allows additional features, like servlet configuration via web.xml and many more things.
- currently the standard servlets are still configured in the code (so the supplied defaults/web.xml is not realy needed, yet),
but could be expanded
- lookup for web.xml - 1. in /DATA/SETTINGS then in /defaults
ServerSideIncludes and servlet return values need further work (for working jetty integration)
- TODO: added nasty quickfix to allow SSI - needs further work
- TODO: YaCy servlet return values/parameters are not handled
- removed httpclient 3.1 which has been used by solrj < 4.x.x and is now
not used any more
- fixed some parts in YaCy which used methods from httpclient 3.1
log4j-over-slf4j is there. From slf4j all loggings are routed to the jdk
logger. Now all loggings are consistently done to the jdk logger.
- added some lines to the logging properties to suppress many solr
logging statements. The number of the logging entries had already become
a performance issue, therefore removing these from the log should
increase performance.
The default schema uses only some of them and the resting search index
has now the following properties:
- webgraph size will have about 40 times as much entries as default
index
- the complete index size will increase and may be about the double size
of current amount
As testing showed, not much indexing performance is lost. The default
index will be smaller (moved fields out of it); thus searching
can be faster.
The new index will cause that some old parts in YaCy can be removed,
i.e. specialized webgraph data and the noload crawler. The new index
will make it possible to:
- search within link texts of linked but not indexed documents (about 20
times of document index in size!!)
- get a very detailed link graph
- enhance ranking using a complete link graph
To get the full access to the new index, the API to solr has now two
access points: one with attribute core=collection1 for the default
search index and core=webgraph to the new webgraph search index. This is
also avaiable for p2p operation but client access is not yet
implemented.
