Installing Acquia Search with Search API
There are two module ecosystems that can be used for Solr with Drupal 7, Search API and Apache Solr Search. You must pick one of the two module ecosystems for your Acquia Search implementation.
For more information on each of these ecosystems, see Installing Acquia Search for Drupal 7.
A single site should use only one of the preceding options. Enabling modules from both options can cause problems.
Use the following instructions to install Acquia Search using the Search API module for Drupal 7.
To prepare your Drupal project, environment, or codebase, use your preferred method to copy a remote website configuration to your development environment.
Use the following procedure to install the Acquia Search for Search API module to enable the use of Acquia Search:
Cloud Platform$conf['acquia_search_disable_version_select'] = FALSE;Navigate to the Search API module configuration page at Administration > Configurations > Search and metadata > Search API.
On the Search API Configuration page, you see an Acquia Search server and Acquia Search index if you are logged into your Acquia subscription.
If you do not see this index, you can create a new server by clicking +Add server with the following settings:
Acquia Search.Solr 8 and above.After creating the server, click +Add index to create a new index. Select the new server you created for your index.
Acquia recommends using the Solr Devel module to debug Solr indexing and queries. For the troubleshooting guide, see Using Solr Devel module to debug Solr indexing and queries.
For more information on using the Search API module, see the Drupal.org Search API documentation.
If you see the message “To protect your data, the Search API Acquia module is enforcing read-only mode on the Search API indexes, because it could not figure out what Acquia-hosted Solr index to connect to”, make sure that a Solr index has been created or an index override has been specified.
On the Acquia Search index page, click Index Now.
The content of your Solr index is populated and maintained by Drupal’s cron process. The Index Now button forces the indexing process to begin. Depending on the amount of content on your website, the initial indexing process will take some time to complete.
