Unable to find schema.xml file in solr 6.0,so to configure it,am i supposed to add a new file,or it will happen automatically?

Question

I have created a new core named "testcore" in solR ,but in solR 6.0 I am not able to find Schema.xml file in conf folder,so am I supposed to manually create it or it will configure itself automatically?

I wanted to index a example from example docs,so to index it am I supposed to mention Schema.xml document or it will happen automatically as solR 6 is schemaless.

I am trying to folow this tutorial

please help!!

Answer 1

If you have started Solr with managed schema enabled and you would like to switch to manually editing a schema.xml file, you should take the following steps:

1. Rename the managed-schema file to schema.xml

2. Modify solrconfig.xml to replace the schemaFactory class.

   a. Remove any ManagedIndexSchemaFactory definition if it exists

<!-- An example of Solr's implicit default behavior if no schemaFactory is explicitly defined. --> <schemaFactory class="ManagedIndexSchemaFactory"> <bool name="mutable">true</bool> <str name="managedSchemaResourceName">managed-schema</str> </schemaFactory>

b. Add a ClassicIndexSchemaFactory definition as shown below

    <schemaFactory class="ClassicIndexSchemaFactory"/>

3. Reload the core(s).
