CF 2021 Solr uninstall, but what package

Hello all,
Others have noted the security issue with Solr and version 7.
We don't need it on our servers, so I would like to uninstall, I am not sure yet if I can disable the add-on service cause I think the cfhtml2pdf tag might be used in our code.

So if I can just uninstall SOLR then I would like to do that....but I have no idea which package in package manager I can uninstall.
I have looked at them and none seem to relate to SOLR.
So which one is it?

    Correct answer Charlie Arehart

    It's the one called "search".

    I uninstalled the pkg, and restarted CF service.  Still solr comes up to a webpage when I go to Localaddress:8993

     

    Edit:Restarted Add-On service, page still comes up as well.

    Don't apologize, I appreciate the detailed elaboration.
    I may try your approach with our other servers.  I would prefer as little impact to our setup as possible.
    I don't need more issues to deal with.

    Thank you Charlie.


    Thanks, Seth. And good to hear on that prospect. Just remember then how they would differ from each other., which may become important down the road:-)

     

    As for my apology, it's simply that while some appreciate such elaboration, I know that some others really do not. But we soldier on here... or cowboy up...or run the race set before us, to pick among metaphors:-)
