Solr 3.5 + WP 3.3 - issue with schema. Core doesn't show up about solr-for-wordpress HOT 5 CLOSED

The reason solr wont start when used in multicore environment is because it does not contain the right config files whilst the single instance does so.

To resolve this issue I would copy over solr/conf/*.txt files to the core0/conf folder, reason being our schema files makes use of few of the txt files defined by default in the single instance.
Once you have copied those file over, the server should start as normal.

Regarding the ping, thats another issue and has more to do with the solrconfig.xml within the conf folder, in a single instance the PingRequestHandler is defined under /admin/ping but in multicore instances it is not defined so.

To resolve the issue add this to your solrconfig.xml inside the <config> section

      <requestHandler name="/admin/ping" class="PingRequestHandler">
               <lst name="defaults">
                 <str name="qt">standard</str>
                 <str name="q">solrpingquery</str>
                 <str name="echoParams">all</str>
               </lst>
      </requestHandler>

Hope that helps.

You should check your logs, the schema might not work with 3.5 and is causing Solr to not start that instance.

shaksi is correct, copy the txt files from the non-multicore example, setup the ping request handler and everything works fine.

1. the Multicore issue was fixed by moving the *.txt files as Shaskhi suggested Thanks :)
2. still having the ping failed issue. I moved to single core and still had the issue and then even moved to Solr 1.4 and Ping still fails (I am able to ping successfully using my browser) and the search comes up as unavailable.

I'm getting this error: org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Plugin init failure for [schema.xml] fieldType "text": Plugin init failure for [schema.xml] analyzer/filter: Error loading class 'solr.EnglishPorterFilterFactory'

Will shaksi's solutions fix this issue?

If so, what is the full path of this: " copy over solr/conf/*.txt files "

Is it: solr/example/solr/collection1/conf ??
