Resolution for Drupal 8
Try to patch Solarium by running the following command in your Drupal docroot (the vendor folder may also be at the same level as your docroot):
cd vendor/solarium/solarium && wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/janusman/fc7833a8598e436434899d2b369e04bb/raw/3583b2531fb90edf900e3f3b552ae4d339c40e27/solarium-patch-3.8.1-to-3.x-with-boundary-fix.patch && patch -p1 <solarium-patch-3.8.1-to-3.x-with-boundary-fix.patch
Please note that this patch is no longer needed if you are using search_api_solr-8.x-1.10
Resolution for Drupal 7
- Go to the Search API configuration page, and then click the Search API attachments tab.
- Scroll to the Solr Extraction Settings section, and in the Solr extracting servlet path field, enter
