UPGRADING TO 1.1.0

Additional upgrade considerations specific to this release. Refer to the upgrade documentation for the standard instructions that apply in all cases.

External Solr

---

In ArchivesSpace 1.0.9 the default ports configuration was:

AppConfig[:backend_url] = "http://localhost:8089"
AppConfig[:frontend_url] = "http://localhost:8080"
AppConfig[:solr_url] = "http://localhost:8090"
AppConfig[:public_url] = "http://localhost:8081"

With the introduction of the optional external Solr instance functionality this has been updated to:

AppConfig[:backend_url] = "http://localhost:8089"
AppConfig[:frontend_url] = "http://localhost:8080"
AppConfig[:solr_url] = "http://localhost:8090"
AppConfig[:indexer_url] = "http://localhost:8091" # NEW TO 1.1.0
AppConfig[:public_url] = "http://localhost:8081"

In most cases the default value for indexer_url will blend in seamlessly without you needing to take any action. However if you modified the original values in your config.rb file you may need to update it. Examples:

You use a different ports sequence

AppConfig[:indexer_url] = "http://localhost:9091"

You run multiple ArchivesSpace instances on a single host

Under this deployment scenario you would have changed port numbers for some (or all) instances in each config.rb file, so set the indexer_url for each instance as described above.

You include hostnames

AppConfig[:indexer_url] = "http://yourhostname:8091"

Clustering

---

In a clustered configuration you may need to edit instance_[server hostname].rb files:

{
  ...
  :indexer_url => "http://[localhost|yourhostname]:8091",
}
