copied!<p>This is kind of late in the game, but I just put up a blog post with <a href="http://www.plaidpony.com/blog/post/2011/04/Multicore-SOLR-And-Tomcat-On-Windows-Server-2008-R2.aspx" rel="nofollow">instructions for a multicore SOLR instance on Tomcat</a> which reads:</p> <blockquote> <ol> <li>Downloaded and installed the 32-bit/64-bit Windows Service Installer for Tomcat</li> <li>Installed Tomcat on the server (no special instructions here--just run the install and install wherever you wish)</li> <li>Verified the installation of Tomcat by going to http://localhost:8080</li> <li>Edit Tomcat's conf/server.xml and add <strong>URIEncoding="UTF-8"</strong> to the <Connector> element as shown here</li> <li>Download SOLR from one of the mirrors found here (downloaded the apache-solr-1.4.1.zip package) and unzip the package</li> <li>Create a directory where SOLR will be hosted from (in my case I used e:\inetpub\solr)</li> <li>Copy the contents of the <strong>example\solr</strong> directory to your SOLR host directory (in my case e:\inetpub\solr)</li> <li>Create directories under your SOLR host directory for each of the cores you wish to create (I created a dozen or so folders for each core I wanted to create in the e:\inetpub\solr directory.  The directories included en-US, en-CA, en-GB, etc.)</li> <li>Copy the <strong>solr.xml</strong> file from the <strong>example\multicore</strong> directory and paste it into your SOLR host directory (e:\inetpub\solr for my example)</li> <li>Edit the <strong>solr.xml</strong> file to include the information for each of the cores you created (if you created a folder under your host for a core named <strong>en-US</strong>, then add the following under the <cores> element in the <strong>solr.xml</strong> file: <strong><core name="en-US" instanceDir="en-US" /></strong>)</li> <li>Stop the Tomcat Service</li> <li>Copy the *solr*.war file from the <strong>dist</strong> directory in the unzipped SOLR package to your Tomcat <strong>webapps</strong> folder</li> <li>Rename the *solr*.war file to solr.war</li> <li>In the notification area in the right-hand side of the Windows task bar, right-click on the <strong>Apache Tomcat 7</strong> icon and select <strong>Configure</strong></li> <li>Click the <strong>Java</strong> tab and add the following to the <strong>Java Options</strong> text box: <strong>-Dsolr.solr.home=e:\inetpub\solr</strong> (change e:\inetpub\solr to wherever your SOLR is being hosted)</li> <li>Click <strong>OK</strong> in the dialog and then start-up the Tomcat service</li> <li>Open the <strong>conf\solrconfig.xml</strong> files under each of the cores you created and change the <strong>dataDir</strong> element to point to a specific directory.  If this step is not completed, all of your cores will be using the same data store for their data.</li> <li>Stop and re-start the Tomcat Service</li> <li>Test that your cores are running by running a query from the web browser http://localhost:8080/solr/en-US/select?q=*:* (replace "en-US" with whatever you've named one of your cores)</li> </ol> </blockquote>
