Description

When installing solr with the install script (documentation https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Taking+Solr+to+Production) the process only listens on an IPv4 socket. > *8983

When manually installing with the same software set but running the software via a tomcat startup it does listen on ipv4 and IPv6 sockets. > :::8080

I do realize that I have different ports, it's about 2 servers. I intentionally did not change port of the IPv6 only server to be exact and presize and maybe running it via Tomcat affects this.

vim /etc/tomcat/web.xml

    <env-entry> 
       <env-entry-name>solr/home</env-entry-name> 
       <env-entry-value>/home/solr</env-entry-value> 
       <env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type> 
    </env-entry>

cp /tmp/solr-5.0.0/server/webapps/solr.war /var/lib/tomcat/webapps/
service tomcat start
