I have installed the solr service on a LINUX environment. Now trying to start the service using the below command
service solr start
After executing this command, am getting below error from the server
Waiting to see Solr listening on port 8080 [-] Still not seeing Solr listening on 8080 after 30 seconds!
tail: cannot open `/var/solr/logs/solr.log' for reading: No such file or directory
I created the solr.log file manually and placed it under the above mentioned path, But as soon, i issue the command "service solr start" . The solr.log file will be renamed and there won't be any new file created with the solr.log. hence the service fails to start. Could anyone let me know how to tackle this issue.
Thanks in advance.
I had a similar issue, and was able to find a hint in the /var/solr/logs/solr-8983-console.log
Originally I had been using Java 8, and Solr was working just fine for me.
When I switched to Java 11, Solr would have the issue you reported.
The log file contained the following:
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseConcMarkSweepGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release.
Unrecognized VM option 'UseParNewGC'
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
I switched back to Java 8 and Solr started just fine.
First, did you use the procedure provided to install the Solr service page 461
Second, did you set the proper overrides to the environment defaults in a solr.in.sh script (p. 462 of the ref manual). You also need to make sure that the LOG4J_PROPS in the solr.in.sh file points to your log4j.properties file. Also make sure that SOLR_LOGS_DIR is pointing to the correct place.
If all that is correct, then check that the values in your log4j.properties file are set correctly (p. 468 of the ref manual).
You can get the reference manual here: https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/lucene/solr/ref-guide/ if you don't have it already.
I had a tough time getting Solr to run as a service, but in the end I simply wasn't reading carefully enough.
I just upgraded from Apache 2.2 -> 2.4 Took a little bit of work to get PHP and SSL running again, but now i have one problem i can't figure out... CORS
I have in my virtual host
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
but i keep getting an error saying
Request header field Content-Type is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Headers.
I can't seem to find anything that is preventing this from working. Clearly i am missing something.
Your VirtualHost is probably no longer being used due to your distros package creating/restoring a default virtual host that covers your customized one up.
Sometimes this happens if your systems own notion of its hostname is what you use for ServerName in your custom vhost.
I'd suggest setting a dummy ServerName in the default vhost created by your distros configuration, or removing it entirely.
You can review a summary of your vhost with apachectl -S
I figured it out. It was similar issue, when updating the package the new .conf file disabled .htaccess directives.
I recently installed Apache/2.4.6 from source. At present the MPM module enabled is mpm_event_module. I want to enable the prefork mpm, but not sure from where to do that.
I am aware of changing the mpm module from /etc/sysconfig/httpd in case of the apache installed using yum. But in my case as the installinon is from source, I could not not do the same.
I tried recompiling apche using './configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache --enable-module=prefork' , but the mpm is still mpm_event_module. Clearly the issue is with defining prefork as the mpm.
I could also see that the installation directory has the prefork.c module. There must be a way to define it as the mpm.
Could someone please help.
In versions prior to 2.4, you cannot change the MPM of the binary Apache2 installation at run-time.
You have to compile Apache with the desired MPM using the --with-mpm=MODULE NAME command line option to the config script. To change MPM, the binary must be rebuilt.
You can determine which MPM Apache2 is currently built with by executing apache2 -l or httpd -l on the command line.
Brief but very clear documentation on this:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mpm.html
In version 2.4, you can also build MPMs as dynamic modules which allows changing the MPM at run-time.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mpm.html#dynamic
I have been trying to install Ushahidi platform for weeks but without any luck. I recently started over using Ushahidi latest release ushahidi-Ushahidi_Web-2.0.1-140-g0991172.zip and extracted it to folder ushahidi under my root.
I am using godaddy Linux server. I have tried both the manual and wizard to setup Ushahidi. In all cases, after installation, I get the same error when I try to access admin page. The error reads:
No input file specified.
I have tried tried installing using the wizard and the manual process. My PHP version is as required.
Any help will be appreciated. I need it to work so I can move on and customize it. Very disappointing such a good open source tool has poor installation guides!
Thanks.

there are a few things that can trip up following the installation.
Make sure that:
mod_rewrite is turned on in apache "a2enmod rewrite"
AllowOverride All is set in your apache config for your site (/etc/apache2/sites-available/default)
your .htaccess file points to the correct webroot
Something that I've noticed recently on two different machines is that Apache2 installed via MacPorts seems to have stopped launching when I boot up. The honest truth is that I can't swear it did so before, but it's something I think I'd notice because installing the LaunchDaemon is part of my install process. In fact, if I try to reload the LaunchDaemon, it fails:
$ sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2.plist
org.macports.apache2: Already loaded
Unless I start Apache manually (using sudo apachectl restart), grep'ing for either "apache2" or "httpd" in my process list only produces this:
$ sudo ps -ef | egrep "apache2|httpd"
0 52 1 0 0:00.06 ?? 0:00.08 /opt/local/bin/daemondo --label=apache2 --start-cmd /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/apache2.wrapper start ; --stop-cmd /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/apache2.wrapper stop ; --restart-cmd /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/apache2.wrapper restart ; --pid=none
1410639199 6960 6792 0 0:00.00 ttys001 0:00.00 egrep apache2|httpd
Looks like the daemon itself is in place, but no executable. As far as I know/can tell, the relevant executables (httpd and apachectl) are executable by everyone.
Has anyone else noticed this? Any ideas?
UPDATE
As requested below, I did execute launchctl list. The list is long and I'm not sure how to snip it, but suffice to say that no org.macports.* items are listed. That in itself is interesting because my MySQL daemon is loaded the same way. It works, but also doesn't appear in the list. Let me know if the entire output is really needed.
UPDATE
I assumed that I had executed launchctl list under sudo, but prompted by mipadi's comment below, I tried again ensuring that I did so and I assumed incorrectly. When executed under sudo, the MacPorts items appear:
51 - org.macports.mysql5
52 - org.macports.apache2
I'm not sure whether that will help, but it's a little more info nonetheless.
UPDATE
I've asked a different, but related, question at LaunchDaemons and Environment Variables. I'll update both questions as I learn more.
UPDATE
Today, based on mailing list input, I tried using a wildcard home directory. Academically, it's a little more inclusive than I'd like, but the practical reality is that I'm the only one using this computer; certainly the only one who'd have Apache config files laying around.
Include "/Users/*/Dropbox/Application Support/apache/conf.d.osx/*.conf"
Include "/Users/*/Library/Application Support/MacPorts/apache/conf.d/*.conf"
Unfortunately...
httpd: Syntax error on line 512 of /opt/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Wildcard patterns not allowed in Include /Users/*/Dropbox/Application Support/apache/conf.d.osx/*.conf
I found my answer to this problem here:
https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36101
"I apparently fixed this when changing my local dnsmasq config. In /etc/hosts I added my servername (gala) to the loopback entry:
127.0.0.1 localhost gala
and then I changed ServerName in /opt/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf to match:
ServerName gala
Apache now starts at boot for me."
Since I now know why Apache has stopped loading on startup, I'm going to articulate that answer and mark this question as answered. The reason Apache has stopped launching on boot is that I'm trying to share an httpd.conf file across systems. The config file needs to Include files from directories that exist within my home directory. Since the home directory is different on each machine, I was trying to reference the ${HOME} environment variable.
This works fine when manually starting after the machine is booted, but fails on startup because the environment variable isn't yet set. As mentioned above, see this question for more information.
Rob:
Had the same problem: "sudo launchctl load -w ..." started Apache2 while I was logged in, but did not work during startup (the "-w" should have taken care of that). Also, as you noticed, the daemon seems to be registered with launchctl. It will show up with "sudo launchctl list" and another "sudo launchctl load ..." will result in the error message.
I played with "sudo port load apache2" and "sudo port unload apache2", but could not get httpd running on reboot.
In the end, I got rid of the MacPorts startup item: "sudo port unload apache2", checked with "sudo launchctl list" that org.macports.apache2 is no longer registered for startup.
Afterwards, I followed the steps on http://diymacserver.com > Docs > Tiger > Starting Apache. I only had to adapt the path from /usr/local/... to /opt/local/...
Now the MacPorts Apache2 is starting fine with every reboot.
Good luck, Klaus
I found that my MacPorts apache2 was not starting on boot because of an “error” in my httpd.conf.
I was using
Listen 127.0.0.1:80
Listen 192.168.2.1:80
Listen 123.123.123.123:80 # Example IP, not the one I was really using
And in Console.app I was seeing
4/8/12 4:59:06.208 PM org.macports.apache2: (49)Can't assign requested address: make_sock: could not bind to address 192.168.2.1:80
4/8/12 4:59:06.208 PM org.macports.apache2: no listening sockets available, shutting down
4/8/12 4:59:06.208 PM org.macports.apache2: Unable to open logs
I tried adjusting permissions on all the log folders (despite the fact that logs were being written just fine when I manually started apache2) and that didn't help.
Even though the Apache Documentation for Listen clearly states
Multiple Listen directives may be used to specify a number of addresses and ports to listen to. The server will respond to requests from any of the listed addresses and ports.
I decided to try switching back to just using
Listen 80
And after doing so apache2 is starting on boot with no errors or warnings.
If you're using Subversion with Apache, you may find that Apache is not starting because the mod_dav_svn.so file has moved to /opt/local/libexec. You'll need to adjust your Apache startup files to account for the new location of this file.
In newer versions of MacPorts you can run sudo port load apache2 to instruct MacPorts to take care of the launchctl setup and automatically start the process. To stop the process run port unload.
After loading check /opt/local/apache2/logs/error_log for errors, including configuration issues.
In addition to my previous answer I have also found that sometimes Apache fails to start because something else with the system is not yet ready.
On one OS X Server machine I also use the DNS to create a “internal only” DNS name for the machine and that name is used in my Apache configuration. Sometimes when Apache tries to start the DNS server is not yet ready and Apache fails to load because the hostname isn’t valid.
I have also seen this on other non-Server systems without local DNS as well where something else required by Apache must not be ready yet.
One thing that has worked is to edit the apache2.wrapper located at /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/apache2.wrapper that MacPorts’ daemondo uses to start up Apache.
Edit the Start() function to add a sleep command to wait a bit before launching Apache.
Original (Lines 14-17 on my machine)
Start()
{
[ -x /opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl ] && /opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start > /dev/null
}
With wait time added
Start()
{
[ -x /opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl ] && sleep 10 && /opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start > /dev/null
}
