Re: [VuFind-Tech] Migration

[Nathan T. <nta...@gm...>]

Progress! That got vufind running, but now am getting a "solr index is
offline" error. Here's the debug info, I'll see what I can do in the
meantime.

Backtrace:
[533] /usr/share/pear/PEAR.php
[163] /usr/local/catalog/web/sys/Solr.php
[151] /usr/local/catalog/web/sys/ConnectionManager.php
[94] /usr/local/catalog/web/sys/SearchObject/Solr.php
[59] /usr/local/catalog/web/sys/SearchObject/Factory.php
[120] /usr/local/catalog/web/sys/Interface.php
[72] /usr/local/catalog/web/index.php
