Tomcat

Installing and Configuring Solr on Debian GNU/Linux

After installing and playing around with Solr on my Gentoo box, I had to deploy the same stuff on Debian Lenny/sid.

The difference between the two distros wasn't huge but it worth mentioning that Tomcat 6 didn't hit Debian's experimental until the moment I am typing this.

The installation of Tomcat 5.5 and Solr 1.2 from APT is as easy as:

# apt-get install solr-tomcat5.5

The problem for me is: Tomcat 5.5 is way old and caused me few issues with relatively bug updates to Solr. So I wanted to install Tomcat 6 which will be done with these steps:

# cd
# apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
# wget http://apache.osuosl.org/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.18/bin/apache-tomcat-6.0.1...
# tar zxf apache-tomcat-6.0.18.tar.gz
