Basic configuration steps for setting up Solr 3.x on CentOS/RHEL 6.4 -- specifically for use with Magento Enterprise

Installing Solr on CentOS/RHEL 6

From the Apache Software Foundation, "Solr is an open source enterprise search server based on the Lucene Java search library, with XML/HTTP and JSON, Ruby, and Python APIs, hit highlighting, faceted search, caching, replication, and a web administration interface." Magento has had built-in support for Solr since Enterprise verion 1.8.

The following instructions show how to complete a basic installation and configuration of Apache Solr for use with Magento Enterprise on CentOS/RHEL 6. These instructions the Java JDK with Tomcat rather than jetty.

Note: Solr should be on a dedicated server if possible, especially for large installations, as it can be resource intensive

Install Java JDK

Overview

This is the process I have found to be very helpful when migrating projects from their SVN repository over to Git. When migrating from one version control system to another it's important to retain as much information about the development history as possible (i.e., commit messages, tags, branches, etc.) and avoid the easy and tempting method of just downloading the project from a server and throw it into the new version control (you should only consider that if the project has never been in a version control system before).

Key concepts:

  • tools for migrating svn repositories to git
  • how to migrate standardized svn repositories
  • how to migrate non-standardized svn repositories
  • best practices for your now un-maintained SVN repository

Creating a diff file to upgrade Magento

Before you begin

Read Aaron Hawks' blog post for the original idea for this gist.

While this process should theoretically work to upgrade the core/default files that come with Magento from any old version to the most recent version (as long as they're in the same distribution, i.e., Community to Community or Enterprise to Enterprise), you should always refer to Magento's release notes and upgrade paths for the version you're upgrading to for full details and work flow. This is the process I used to go from Magento EE 1.12.0.2 to Magento EE 1.13.0.1 directly ( skipping over 1.13.0.0 due to the instructions outlined in this Magento article and release notes ).

Short guide on migrating from homebrew-php to phpbrew

#Migrating from homebrew-php to phpbrew

After installing phpbrew it's time to install a set of chosen PHP versions. My picks at the time of this writing were:

sudo phpbrew install php-5.5.0 +default+dbs+mb+apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs
sudo phpbrew install php-5.4.17 +default+dbs+mb+apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs
sudo phpbrew install php-5.3.27 +default+dbs+mb+apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs

When not sure where apxs is located on your system, whereis apxs is quite chatty.

Mac OS X LEMP Configuration

Mac OS X LEMP Configuration

This Gist is a collection of configuration files that can be used to easily setup a Homebrew-based LEMP stack on Mac OS X.

Files in this repository are numbered and named for ordering purposes only. At the top of each file is a section of metadata that denote what component the file belongs to and the default name & location of the file. Feel free to implement it however you want.

Note: some configuration files have hard-coded paths to my user directory -- fix it for your setup
