Hello Lumdev -
Just wondering if anyone out here has upgraded to Luminis 5 and has search working?
We are upgrading from Luminis IV to 5.3 and using the Ellucian LP5 theme.
As I understand it we need to set up Lucene. Just wondering what everyone else is using and if anyone has had success with Luminis 5 and Lucene search (or any other search solution)
TIA,
Melissa
Luminis 5.3 and Search
I'm going through the same issue at this moment. Lucene would not work in our environment with admin and portal nodes on 2 different servers.
So on suggestion by support, I'm trying to get elasticsearch to work. Still running into issues with that, but I'll post back if I get it working.
As a side note, I was told that search will NOT work with targeted content, because the search feature is a liferay feature, not a luminis one.
Luminis 5.3 and Search
Melissa,
I have the following configuration for our prod 5.3
ldap, admin, portal tiers 1-4
I also have a test instance of 5.3
1 ldap/admin server, portal tiers 1-2.
I have setup the Lucene indices on a share on the Admin server that all portal tiers mount. The search is functioning on both our PROD and TEST implementations of LP5.3. I have the following settings in the portal-ext.properties:
I used the LP Installation Guide for 5.3 on page 53. So I have gotten the Lucene indexing and search to work.

Brippe,
Do you have those Lucene settings on the admin tier only or on the admin and portal tiers?
