Major Changes
=============
-* masterkey-lui-solr5 is based on Solr 5, which does not require a
- separate Java servlet container. That simplifies packaging and
- installation significantly, as there is no longer any need for
- Tomcat integration. There is only one package to install,
- masterkey-lui-solr5.
-
-* masterkey-lui-solr5 is installed as a separate service, since it no
- longer runs under Tomcat. The service name is "lui-solr", and files
- and processes are owned by the "lui-solr" user (created as part of
- the package installation).
-
-* The default port for masterkey-lui-solr5 is the same as the Solr 5
- default port, 8983, to prevent conflicts when upgrading a lui-solr
- installation that is on the same system as a MasterKey Harvester
- installation (which runs by default under Tomcat on port 8080). This
- may require changes to Harvester datasource settings and/or search
- target settings for existing installations. The Solr port can be set
- by the user in the configuration file
- /etc/masterkey/lui/solr/lui-solr.in.sh (look for the SOLR_PORT variable).
-
-* Solr 5 no longer has the feature of serving up a default core
- ("collection1") on the root of the web
- application. The masterkey-lui-solr5 installs a default core named
- "lui", addressable at http://localhost:8983/solr/lui. This may also
- require changes to Harvester and search target settings.

* Cores are defined in the /etc/masterkey/lui/solr/solr-home
directory. Indexes are stored by default in
masterkey-lui-solr4-master-tomcat8, and
masterkey-lui-solr4-slave-tomcat8

able to point to your existing index by editing
/etc/masterkey/lui/solr/solr-home/lui/solrconfig.xml and altering the
entry for `<dataDir>`.
