| |
| You can install Solr in any system where a suitable Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is available, as detailed below. |
| |
| Currently this includes Linux, MacOS/OS X, and Microsoft Windows. |
| |
| == Installation Requirements |
| |
| === Java Requirements |
| |
| You will need the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.8 or higher. At a command line, check your Java version like this: |
| |
| [source,bash] |
| ---- |
| $ java -version |
| java version "1.8.0_60" |
| Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27) |
| Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.60-b23, mixed mode) |
| ---- |
| |
| The exact output will vary, but you need to make sure you meet the minimum version requirement. We also recommend choosing a version that is not end-of-life from its vendor. Oracle or OpenJDK are the most tested JREs and are recommended. It's also recommended to use the latest available official release when possible. |
| |
| Some versions of Java VM have bugs that may impact your implementation. To be sure, check the page https://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/JavaBugs[Lucene JavaBugs]. |
| |
| If you don't have the required version, or if the `java` command is not found, download and install the latest version from Oracle at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html. |
| |
| === Supported Operating Systems |
| |
| Solr is tested on several versions of Linux, MacOS, and Windows. |
