Installing ColdFusion 9 search services, after the fact.

May 28, 2010 10:13 AM

When I first installed CF9 on our Windows 2003, I only chose the Solr search services, thinking that the "ColdFusion 9 search services" was only for Verity, which we did not want.  Turns out, as best as I can tell.  ColdFusion 9 Solr Services will not work without the ColdFusin 9 Search Services.

Can anybody quickly point me to documentation on how I can just install this ColdFusion 9 Search Service?  I'm hoping I do not have to do a full CF9 install again.

    Re-run the install, selecting the EAR/WAR file install type.  It'll create an EAR or a WAR, but will also give you the option to install the other services again too, without touching your existing CF install.

    There are stand alone installers for Verity and Solr.

     

    http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads.html#cf9serverinstal lers

     

    Or on your media in the Verity/Solr folders.

    I appologize for asking a question on such an old post, but now that 9.01 is out, is there another way to do this. I am warry of installing 9 again on top of 9.01 and then updating again. I tried using the standalone server but it ended up breaking my install, I had to revert back via snapshot. Thanks for your input.

    Is there anything in the 9.0.1 release notes that suggest there's any changes to those services?  If not, just doing the 9.0 install will probably be enough.

     

    Test in the lab first, obviously.

    I don't share your confidence that it wouldn't be an issue based on what it may or may not say in the release notes.....It would be nice if I had a lab. Unfortunately based on my readings it seems that I don't have any other recourse.

     

    I will report back on how it goes. Worse comes to worse, I will revert back from snapshot.

    Confidence has nothing to do with it; it's an educated guess.  And one that I said you ought to test first ;-)

     

    It seems a bit remiss that you don't have a test environment..?

    I appreciate your comments and thank you for your advice. Not having a test environment isn't my choice. I have to make due with what I have. I will post back tomorrow after I give this a go.

     

    Thanks again.
