SICS 4.8.6

SICS 4.8.6

SE-80 #

Apache Log4j upgraded to Apache Log4j 2 #

Changed to use XML configuration file ’log4j2.xml’ for all SICS products.

  • SICS Desktop - runtime/conf/log4j.properties replaced by runtime/conf/log4j2.xml
  • SICS Servers - WEB-INF/classes/log4j.xml replaced by WEB-INF/classes/log4j2.xml

The Log4j 2 configuration syntax is different then Log4j 1.x, but most, if not all, of the same functionality is available.

See: Log4j - Migrating from Log4j 1.x - Apache Log4j 2

Apache Solr upgraded to version 7.4.0 #

Previous Apache Solr version used was 4.7.2 (SICS Search) and 4.10.4 (SICS Operational Reporting).

Unfortunately, Solr is only backwards compatible with 2 major versions. This means you cannot use the index created by Solr version 4.x on Solr version 7.x.

Note that SICS Operational Reporting SolrNode and SICS Search SolrNode are now only delivered as a stand-alone server running Jetty.
