[chef] Re: Re: solr issue trying to start chef 0.10 rc server

[KC Braunschweig < >]

Well this is partially resolved. It turns out that although I'd
installed java (sun jdk), it wasn't properly linked into /usr/bin so
the app had been trying to use gcj which reports as java 1.4.2 (not
that it'd probably work anyway) and so it wasn't loading jsp hence the
solr failure. A proper link to a proper java made it much happier.

So one more time running the chef solr installer, got everything
started and then ran knife index rebuild. No errors, however, I still
don't seem to have a search index. For example, clicking on the search
environment link in the webui ought to return at least the _default
environment even if no others exist, but it returns nothing. Same with
the other indexes. Now I'm at a loss again.

As an aside, it looks like /usr/bin/chef-solr-rebuild is still in
0.10.0.rc.0 but it seems to be non-functional, I suspect due to a
change in the way that indexing happens with chef-expander now.
