Details
The "Search" and "Help on Context" in NX10 Documentation no longer working
after the NX11 Documentation was installed. (Documentation Server and
Documentation)
The NX11 Documentation, the "Search" and the "Help on Context" is working
properly.
Uninstall and reinstall the NX10 Documentation did not solve the problem.
Solution
re-index the NX10-HTML files using the batch "deploySolrIndex.bat" in the
directory C:\Program Files\Siemens\PLM Documentation Server\Solr_updates
Please read in the NX11 Documentation installation setup under "Installation
Information" -> "Company-wide Server Setup" " -> "Setting up a new Siemens PLM
documentation collection" (page 9)

Webserver Installation Instructions for Windows [Version 2.0]
Setting up a new Siemens PLM documentation collection
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each Siemens product delivers its own documentation content installation
package. These installations share the same content.root directory as defined
in the plm_helpserver.properties file, so they must be installed to the same
directory. They also share the same Solr core directory for documentation
searches. Each new collection installs new Solr indexes as <content>.zip.
These content installs will automatically upload their Solr search indices as
part of the installation.
If it becomes necessary to manually upload the Solr search indices to your
server, this can be done using the script deploySolrIndex.bat located in:
C:\Program Files\Siemens\PLM Documentation Server\solr_updates
The script calls the Java program xpsSolr.jar, which is also in the
solr_updates directory. This must be run on the system where the Siemens PLM
Solr Server is running.
The script deploySolrIndex.bat takes two mandatory arguments:
1. The .zip file to upload, for example: nx11-nx_help-en_US.zip
2. The URL for the Siemens PLM Solr Server, for example:
http://localhost:8283/solr
You must run the script in the directory that contains the xpsSolr.jar and the
solr .zip files.
For example:
C:\Program Files\Siemens\PLM Documentation Server\solr_updates
Example:
To upload the Solr search indexes for the NX 11 English documentation to a
local server on port 8283 the commands would be:
cd C:\Program Files\Siemens\PLM Documentation Server\solr_updates
deploySolrIndex nx11-release_notes-en_US.zip http://localhost:8283/solr
deploySolrIndex nx11-nx_help-en_US.zip http://localhost:8283/solr
To test your installation, go to the Siemens Documentation on your web server
and try a search.

Notes and References
When the installation test would not be successful, restart the "Siemens PLM
Documentation Server" and "Siemens PLM Solr Server" services.
