Anytime I activate the autocomplete function of Aapche Solr, it cripples queries with the following error:

An HTTP error 500 occurred. apachesolr_autocomplete

Any suggestions

Please post a portion of your apache error log to see what is failing.

I reactivated Apache Solr autocomplete and as stated the search function no longer works.

Here is the apache relevant error_log section:

It seems your site is not properly logging errors... or the module silently failed somehow.

Please state how you got the 500 error... what URL is that? Or did you somehow extract that 500 error from inside an AJAX request using Firebug or such?

Also some possible workarounds or further diagnostics:

* Also, does the same happen on a fresh install of Drupal + apachesolr? (Or by disabling all of the other contrib modules you might have)

* What happens if you try using the DEV version?

* Is your Drupal core patched in any way?

I am getting the same error.

I have got an install of pressflow drupal 6.17 with a handful of core modules enabled and feeds.

The error in my log file is 

org.apache.solr.core.SolrCore execute
INFO: [] webapp=/solr-example path=/select params={spellcheck=true&facet=true&facet.mincount=1&spellcheck.q=&facet.limit=25&json.nl=map&wt=json&rows=0&version=1.2&start=0&q=&facet.prefix=wonderful&facet.field=spell&fq=(nodeaccess_all:0+OR+hash:mwdw0l)} status=500 QTime=4

 SEVERE: java.lang.NullPointerException
        at java.io.StringReader.<init>(StringReader.java:33)

I have tried disabling all contrib modules that I can but no luck.

I also tried the dev version but instead of getting the error it just goes on forever and I got this message after install 

Notice: Undefined index: class in apachesolr_autocomplete_form_search_block_form_alter() (line 46 of /home/pressflow/pressflowsite/public_html/sites/all/modules/apachesolr/contrib/apachesolr_autocomplete/apachesolr_autocomplete.module).

@adamelleston: thanks for the report.

Could you:
* report back with what version of Solr you are using?
* confirm if you have the proper schema.xml and solrconfig.xml files that are included with the installed version of apachesolr.module?

@janusman we are just in the process of settings up a drupal cloud server environment setup and believe that solr is being installed from fresh. Once that is ready I will test again on this new setup and let you know if the problem is still there or if its fixed.

Great. I just released version 1.1 yesterday, so make sure you use that too =)

@janusman the new server environment with 1.1 works a treat. Module is a great addition :)

Looks like this was resolved in 2010!
