             Summary: Solr "work" symlink creates infinite loop if you try to 
recurse through the directories
                 Key: BIGTOP-1158
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1158
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Sean Mackrory
            Assignee: Sean Mackrory
            Priority: Blocker


Solr's Tomcat deployment includes a symlink "work" that exists for the purpose 
of allow Tomcat to create some files to store state at run-time. The symlink 
previously point to /var/lib/solr, but with the Tomcat deployment now in 
/var/lib/solr/tomcat-deployment, if Tomcat tries to recurse and fully map the 
directory, it ended up in an infinite loop.

Either the symlink doesn't need to exist at all (it seems Tomcat just creates 
the directory when it needs it, which it will redo if the Tomcat web 
application gets redeployed) or it needs to point to a peer of 
tomcat-deployment, like /var/lib/solr/work.
