I’m currently using Nutch 1.7 to crawl my domain. My issue is specific to URLs being indexed as www vs. non-www.
Specifically, after firing the crawl and index to Solr 4.5 then validating the results on the front-end with AJAX Solr, the search results page lists results/pages that are both ‘www’ and ” urls such as:
www.mywebsite.com
mywebsite.com
www.mywebsite.com/page1.html
mywebsite.com/page1.html
My understanding is that the url filtering aka regex-urlfilter.txt needs modification. Are there any regex/nutch experts that could suggest a solution?
