Hi Ramon,
your steps are correct. I'd use Solr 8.11.1 as OpenCms 16. For the
ICUCollationField you need to add some libs to Solr that are included,
but not automatically loaded:
You can, e.g., add them in the solrconfig.xml for the cores you add:
<config>
<lib dir="/opt/solr/dist/" regex=".*\.jar" />
<lib dir="/opt/solr/contrib/analysis-extras/lib/"
regex=".*\.jar" />
<lib dir="/opt/solr/contrib/analysis-extras/lucene-libs/"
regex=".*\.jar" />
...
</config>
Best, Daniel.
