Introduction

The recommended way of using the ezfind and ezodf extensions on a server with multiple eZP installations is to have only one instance of Solr server and one instance of OO conversion server for all the eZP installations.

Running single instances of this servers for multiple eZP installations is not a problem if you have full access to your server, but if you happen to have many eZP installation in a limited virtual hosting environment, setting this two servers can be a little bit tricky.

Of course you can also add this as a variable in your init script. java -jar -Djetty.port=55555 start.jar hth Paul eZ Publish, eZ Find, Solr expert consulting and training http://twitter.com/paulborgermans
Marko Žmak	Monday 17 January 2011 6:43:04 am Paul, the purpose of this blogpost is to describe how to setup ezodf and solr daemons in a shared virtual host environment where you don't have root access. And setting the solr port via the command line parameter requires you to change the startup script, and therefore whenever you want to change the port you have to ask the system admin to reinstall the modified script. And this is contrary to the "spirit" of this post: to setup and maintain the daemons with a minimum of system admin intervention. -- Nothing is impossible. Not if you can imagine it!
