[ckan-dev] Unclear Solr Version Requirements / Compatibility / Suppport

Tue Nov 14 09:00:28 UTC 2017

Hello Bruno,

I confirm that the latest Solr version that works correctly with CKAN is 
6.5.1

I sent a message last week on the list because I was having problems 
with search and indexation on my installation where I was using Solr 6.6.1.

In this version (6.6.1) two lines of the schema.xml file have to be 
commented because they are deprecated and unsupported. These lines, when 
they are commented, break the filters in CKAN interface.

In addition to this problem, the Solr index was cleared everytime I 
deleted either a package or a resource. I had to use paster to reindex 
the collection.

I changed the Solr version to 6.5.1, uncommented the lines in schema.xml 
and now everythings is back to normal.

Regards,

Frédérix
