Answer 1

@Tryskele + @Scott101 worked for me:

add plugin.includes property to both /conf/nutch-site.xml and runtime/local/conf/nutch-site.xml files:

<property>
  <name>plugin.includes</name>
  <value>protocol-httpclient|urlfilter-regex|index-(basic|more)|query-(basic|site|url|lang)|indexer-solr|nutch-extensionpoints|protocol-httpclient|urlfilter-regex|parse-(text|html|msexcel|msword|mspowerpoint|pdf)|summary-basic|scoring-opic|urlnormalizer-(pass|regex|basic)protocol-http|urlfilter-regex|parse-(html|tika|metatags)|index-(basic|anchor|more|metadata)</value>
</property>

Answer 2

Make sure that the plugin indexer-solr is included. Go to the file: conf/nutch-site.xml and in the property plugin.includes add the plugin, for instance:

protocol-http|urlfilter-regex|parse-(html|tika)|index-(basic|anchor)|indexer-solr|scoring-opic|urlnormalizer-(pass|regex|basic)

After adding the plugin the No IndexWriters activated - check your configuration warning disappeared in my case.

Answer 3

Don't know if this is still an issue, but I was having this problem and then realized that my src/plugin/build.xml was missing the indexer-solr plugin. Adding the following and then recompiling nutch fixed it for me:

<ant dir="indexer-solr" target="deploy"/>

Answer 4

Add the below property in conf/nutch-site.xml for plugin

<property>
<name>plugin.includes</name>
<value>protocol-httpclient|urlfilter-regex|index-(basic|more)|query-(basic|site|url|lang)|indexer-solr|nutch-extensionpoints|protocol-httpclient|urlfilter-regex|parse-(text|html|msexcel|msword|mspowerpoint|pdf)|summary-basic|scoring-opic|urlnormalizer-(pass|regex|basic)protocol-http|urlfilter-regex|parse-(html|tika|metatags)|index-(basic|anchor|more|metadata)</value>
</property>

Let me know if it solves your problem.
