SOLR install on production

By SB in Solr 0 Comment
  1. Download binary version of solr from here https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/solr/
    The version for 8.5.2 will be https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/solr/8.5.2/solr-8.5.2.tgz
    Note: Mind that it needs to be file without “src” in name. You can store the file wherever you like because all files will be copied into right places by installation.
  2. Run tar xzf solr-8.5.2.tgz solr-8.5.2/bin/install_solr_service.sh --strip-components=2
  3. Run sudo bash ./install_solr_service.sh solr-8.5.0.tgz

    NOTE! use “sudo” even if you are logged as root!

By running the command above you run it with default configuration which is equivalent of sudo bash ./install_solr_service.sh solr-8.5.0.tgz -i /opt -d /var/solr -u solr -s solr -p 8983

 
Solr has two important folders:
– Solr home directory => in config above its /var/solr
– Solr installation directory => in config about its /opt
 
The home directory is where you will have configuration of cores and solr itself.
Installation directory should not be changed.
 
The final tuning of solr regarding memory, logging configuration etc, should be done in /etc/default/solr.in.sh with env vars.

Project dependent PHP CLI version

By SB in Deployment, Development 0 Comment

When you use one system for different PHP projects then sooner or later you will need to set up different PHP version per project. One solution is to manually change PHP before switching to project. But this is boring… To have the right version of PHP without our interaction we can use php-fpm and set right php version directly in vhost. But how to automatically change PHP version on CLI ?

Moving website to new server using proxy pass to avoid domain propagation problems

By SB in Apache, Basics 0 Comment

Sometimes we need to move website to new server, with new IP. In such cases the most problematic part is domain propagation period. In that period part of website users will hit the old server and part of website users will hit new server. The problem is when they will submit some data – if they were on old server then we will have inconsistent data between old and new server. Is there solution for this ?

Replace right option with right alt on mac osx

By SB in OSX 0 Comment

By default when you want to use some national polish chars on macosx keyboard you need to use right alt. More convenient and natural however is to use right command key which is closer to your right tumb. You could replace the keys with Karabiner (https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/) but if its only thing you need Karabiner for then its better to do it without installing third party software.
