Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
I followed the installation instruction on the Apache Solr Search Integration module page. Everything seems to be working. Solr is working and I can see it generating messages in the command interface when I run cron to re-index. I can query the Drupal site contents in the Solr admin interface and see data from my site. Search on Drupal seems to work, althought the search result looks exactly the same as before I install Solr. I enabled all the facet blocks, but none can show up on the search/node page. Is the module actually working?

codedigger CreditAttribution: codedigger commentedUpon further testing, it seems like it is an incompatibility between Active Search of Javascript Tools module and ApacheSolr. If Active Search is turned on, the facet blocks for AparcheSolr will not show up.
Also, another not so obvious issue is that the Apache Solr search is on a separate "Search" tab on the search page (search/apachesolr_search/). It was not explained in the instruction and many people would not have figured it out right the way.

chuckdeal97 CreditAttribution: chuckdeal97 commentedWe had a similar problem where the facet blocks were not showing up or worse the blocks contained the wrong facet data. We found that it was because we had block caching turned on. Once we turned that off, our facet block problem went away. Is this something that could be fixed in the module or can we not use block caching with this module?

robertDouglass CreditAttribution: robertDouglass commentedI'm opening an issue up to specify block caching for facet blocks. Thanks for reporting.

shariharan CreditAttribution: shariharan commentedI have the same issue.
The Solr sever pings and the index is made 100%. The default search yields solr results, but it won't show the faceted blocks.
There is a new tab "search" which shows the faceted blocks but no search results.
I turned off block cahe and JS Tools. Still the problem persists.
