Error: Solr Integration with AEM 6.4

Avatar

Level 4

I'm not able to integrate Solr 7.5 with AEM 6.4,

getting the following error:

Solr Package Error.PNG

I have tried with almost every version of Solr, but I am getting the same error again and again!

I am simply following this tutorial:

Adobe Experience Manager Help | Integrating SOLR with Adobe Experience Manager

But, in this tutorial, apache.felix.scr.annotations are used. I am just replacing these annotations with osgi annotations.

Here is the new article with R6 annotations working - along with a video.

Adobe Experience Manager Help | Integrating SOLR with Adobe Experience Manager 6.4

@Component

public class SolrSearchServiceImpl implements SolrSearchService

One difference here is we show new way of reading OSGi config values for this use case. This involves these annotations:

package com.adobe.aem.core;

import org.osgi.service.metatype.annotations.AttributeDefinition;

import org.osgi.service.metatype.annotations.AttributeType;

import org.osgi.service.metatype.annotations.ObjectClassDefinition;

@ObjectClassDefinition(name = "AEM Solr Search - Solr Configuration Service", description = "Service Configuration")

public @interface MySimpleService {

    

    @AttributeDefinition(name = "Protocol", defaultValue ="http", description = "Configuration value")

    String protocolValue();

   

   

    @AttributeDefinition(name = "Solr Server Name", defaultValue ="localhost", description = "Server name or IP address")

    String serverName();

   

    @AttributeDefinition(name = "Solr Server Port", defaultValue ="8983", description = "Server port")

    String serverPort();

   

    @AttributeDefinition(name = "Solr Core Name", defaultValue ="collection", description = "Core name in solr server")

    String serverCollection();

   

    @AttributeDefinition(name = "Content page path", defaultValue ="/content/we-retail", description = "Content page path from where solr has to index the pages")

    String serverPath();

    

}

Please check the dependency version of solrj.

You can check the version by giving the package here - /system/console/depfinder

bsloki​ I have checked almost every version of Solr from 5.0 -> 7.0 +, but nothing is working! Just getting the same error again and again!

The article you referenced is for AEM 6.2. I am gonig to test this on 6.4 and we will update the article. Updating the OSGi to R6 and the dependencies will be part of this updated article.

<dependency>

  <artifactId>solr-solrj</artifactId>
  <version>7.5.0</version>
</dependency>

Is this the Maven dependency you are using ? I tried it but the jars are not reflecting in my build . Could you share the maven dependency you used. I can try it out and check

Thanks

Hi Mayanky,

If you simply follow this tutorial and install the package with SCR annotations, it does work even on AEM 6.4 SP2.

At least to the point where you can see the bundle started. Following services are registered as well:

Types: org.apache.sling.spi.resource.provider.ResourceProvider
Description: ServletResourceProvider for Servlets at [/bin/solr/push/pages.servlet, /bin/solr/push/pages]


The tutorial itself uses Solr version 5.4.1. It adds Solr jar as a jar in class path:

Bundle Classpath.,OSGI-INF/lib/org.apache.servicemix.bundles.solr-solrj-5.4.1_1.jar,OSGI-INF/lib/log4j-1.2.16.jar,OSGI-INF/lib/noggit-0.5.jar,OSGI-INF/lib/zookeeper-3.4.5.jar

Which should allow you to work. So, in your case, to upgrade it to Solr 7, you would need to update your pom.xml to Solr 7 Jar's (including all of the new Jar's that need to be included in classpath for Solr 7).

Dear Mayanky,

Please find patch that updates SolrJ library to 7.5.0. This code stil uses SCR, only the changes needed to update SolrJ library bundled here to 7.5 have been performed.

I have AEM 6.4 and SOLR working. The Index was successful. We used We Retail too for AEM 6.4.

We will update this AEM SOLR article for AEM 6.4.

Are you using OSGI Annotations? and can you please send me the SOLR dependencies which you've used in this project.

I keep Felix Annotations for now - my main concern was getting the code to work in AEM 6.4. I am writing up the article now.

Okay, I have tried to replicate this project, But I don't know why my OSGi bundle is not getting resolved! It is getting installed!
