Running Solr as a Windows Service
This is optional.
The following steps apply when running Windchill Index Search in standalone mode or cloud mode.
1. Complete the installation and post-installation steps outlined in the following sections:
If you are using a standalone index search server:
Installing the Index Search Server in Standalone Mode
Configure the Standalone Index Search Server
If you are using the index search server in cloud mode:
Installing the Index Search Server in Cloud Mode
Configure the Index Search Server in Cloud Mode
2. To run Solr as a Windows service, use the Apache Commons Procrun daemon (prunsrv.exe). This is already packaged with the Solr installation. Navigate to the following location:
<INDEX_SEARCH_HOME>\bin
3. Execute install_solr_service.bat.
Verify that the “PTC_SolrServer” service is added to the Windows services list and that you are able to start the service.
To uninstall the service, execute uninstall_solr_service.bat.
