Re: [sleuthkit-users] Autopsy 3.07 keywords search issue

[Alex <ix...@gm...>]

I think I'm experiencing the same bug with Autopsy 3.x on a Windows 8 x64 VMware host, running 64-bit Autopsy. 

Autopsy 3.01 message on application launch: "Error initializing Keyword Search module. File indexing and search will not be functional. Please try to restart your computer and the application."
Autopsy 3.07 message has slightly different wording but log still shows:

SEVERE: Starting server failed. Exception: org.sleuthkit.autopsy.keywordsearch.KeywordSearchModuleException: Error checking if Solr server is running. 

Rebooting doesn't appear to help. How could I troubleshoot this?

Thanks
Alex

PS: All fine on Windows 7 x64.
