I thought I read that solr requires an OS that supports hard links and thought that Windows only supports soft links.
For the default index distribution method from master to searcher, yes, hard-links are currently needed. The distribution mechanism is *very* loosely coupled with Solr though, and one could come up with an alternate method. Also, cygwin might support hard links to files now (I tried it quickly and it seems to work) so that might be a path forward on Windows. -Yonik http://incubator.apache.org/solr Solr, the open-source Lucene search server --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
