Hi, Dovecot wiki says the solr url is something like 'solr/dovecot/' but this gives a 404, if I install solr as per the docs I have a 'solr/#/dovecot/' url: https://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/FTS/Solr I have installed dovecot 2.3 from https://repo.dovecot.org/ and solr 8.3 as per the wiki on a Ubuntu 18.04. The problem and the guess work I did: fts_solr = url=http://localhost:8983/solr/#/dovecot/ doveconf: Warning: Configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/90-plugin.conf line 13: Ambiguous '#' character in line, treating it as comment. Add a space before it to remove this warning. fts_solr = url="http://localhost:8983/solr/#/dovecot/" Error: fts: Failed to initialize backend 'solr': fts_solr: Failed to parse HTTP url: Path component contains invalid character fts_solr = url='http://localhost:8983/solr/#/dovecot/' Error: fts: Failed to initialize backend 'solr': fts_solr: Failed to parse HTTP url: Relative HTTP URL not allowed fts_solr = url=http://localhost:8983/solr/%23/dovecot/ Error: Failed to expand plugin setting fts_solr = 'url=http://localhost:8983/solr/%23/dovecot/': Unknown variable '%/' fts_solr = 'url=http://localhost:8983/solr/#/dovecot/' fts_solr: Failed to parse HTTP url: URL fragment not allowed for HTTP URL in this context Thanks for any help. -- *Marcio Merlone=* -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You cannot use them for API calls. Specifically, they are used by the complex javascript application that is the Solr admin UI. The reason is that all characters in a URL starting with # are NOT sent to the server, they are ONLY handled by the client. Typically only a browser is capable of using those characters. If the Solr core/collection is named "dovecot" then the example URL in the wiki is completely correct. If the index has a different name, then you can replace the string "dovecot" with the correct name. Trying the exact URL that you give to dovecot *will* give you a 404 error. When a Solr client (like fts_solr) uses that URL, it will add the necessary information for it to work correctly. Thanks, Shawn
