Configuring Tomcat to provide UTF-8 support for Solr

Sep 20, 2010 in accents, apachesolr, character encoding, drupal, tomcat, utf-8

When you're setting up Tomcat to run Solr be aware that although Solr supports UTF-8 by default, Tomcat does not. You can enable the character encoding by doing the following in Tomcat's server.xml:

  • Add URIEncoding="UTF-8" to the correct Connector
  • Be sure to remove useBodyEncodingForURI from that Connector
