Alfresco CE 6.2 search not working

TheCondor — Thu, 19 Mar 2020 17:06:48 GMT

Hi, i've deployed a .zip installation on Ubuntu 18.04 with the latest Community Edition 6.2, all is working except the search functions.

I've tryed search-services 1.3, 1.4 and now 1.4.1 but all give me the same error which i past here. Moreover tags and categories are not working at all.

I'm on postgresql, openjdk 11.06. I suspect it's indeed a bug, but openjdk 11 is matched as fully compatible so it's strange... Going back to Java 8 is impossible, becase SOLR is compiled on Java 11 (version 55)....

Thanks in advance for who can help me in this fight!

Solved installing 1.3 search services and later, after solr indexing, upgrading to 1.4 using deployment upgrade guide.

Hi @TheCondor,

Glad you got it sorted & thanks for updating your question - really useful for other users to know what works.

I can confim that 1.4 doesnt work as intended. Thanks to you I caould know and installed 1.3 once 1.4 was not working. Once 1.3 was installed, it started working.

I also had the same issues with 1.4.2 and ACS 6.2.2. The issue is because Solr is not picking up alfresco.secureComms property from solrcore.properties file. Its still looking for keystore files even if the secureComms property is set to none.

This can be overcome by starting solr with startup parameters -

./solr start -a "-Dalfresco.secureComms=none"

Confirmed in my local that this configuration works for ACS 6.2.2 and Search Services 1.4.2
