Solr Search Server
In the Tools section, under "Search / Solr Search Server," you will find the settings for the Solr search server to which the current portal is connected. These settings are based on the information you accepted (default settings) or customized during the "Summary" step of the Intrexx installation.
Authentication on the Solr Search Server
The Intrexx Portal Server authenticates itself with a username and password on the Solr search server.
Starting with Intrexx version 12.0.1
URL of the Solr server
The URL of the Solr search server is displayed here.
Example
http://127.0.0.1:8987/solr
If you have not installed the Solr Search Server on "localhost" or if you are using a different port, enter the appropriate information here.
You can access the Solr Search Server's graphical user interface by entering the Solr Search Server's URL in a browser.
Type
Here, you can choose between the HTTP (Standalone) and SolrCloud server types.
By default, the Solr search server is installed in standalone mode. The Solr search server is installed on the same server as the Intrexx Portal Server. The default username "solr" and the default password "SolrRocks" are used for authentication on the Solr search server.
For detailed information on custom Solr configuration, see the " Custom Solr Configuration" section.

Base directory for Solr index configurations
The default directory `solr/server/solr` is usually located in the Intrexx installation directory if the Solr search server was installed as part of the Intrexx setup.
Search
Opens the standard dialog box where you can select a directory.
Authentication
Log in with your username and password
If this setting is enabled, you can enter the username and password for authentication on the Solr search server.
Starting with Intrexx Steady 11.4.0, Intrexx is not affected by this vulnerability, as it had already been updated to Solr 9.3.0 at that time.
Intrexx Silent may be affected under certain circumstances:
We configure Solr so that it listens only on the loopback interface (127.0.0.1/localhost). By default, an attacker would therefore already need to have compromised the server in order to exploit the vulnerability.
The Intrexx setup always configures Solr with authentication, using the default username "solr" and the default password "SolrRocks." The RCE vulnerability describes a scenario in which an unauthenticated user can upload code via config sets. This is only possible if Solr is running without authentication, which is the default setting for Solr but not for INTREXX.
Specifically, this means that exploitation of the vulnerability is generally unlikely. However, if the default Solr password was used during setup, we recommend changing it immediately.
CVE-2023-50386:
This feature can only be used in SolrCloud mode, which is not enabled in standard installations. Even then, the impact would be very limited, since Intrexx enforces authentication. Starting with Intrexx Steady 11.9.0, Solr 9.4.1 is included, which addresses this vulnerability.

Apply
Clicking this button saves the settings.
Reset
Clicking this button will discard any changes that have not been saved.
Search Syntax
Intrexx uses the eDismax query parser.
The eDismax query parser is based on the Dismax query parser, which in turn is derived from the standard Solr query parser. As a result, eDismax inherits its entire search syntax and extends it.
You can find the documentation for this at https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/index.html.
