             Summary: NRT Reader close can wipe index it doesn't own
                 Key: LUCENE-5574
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5574
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: core/index
    Affects Versions: 4.7.1, 4.8, 5.0
            Reporter: Simon Willnauer
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 4.8, 5.0


Today NRT Readers try to clean up unused files via their IW reference when they 
are closed. Yet, if the index writer is already closed another index could have 
been created on the same directory which can create the same files as the IW 
before. For the NRT Reader those files are not referenced and it will simply 
wipe them away. If you use this in a replication scenario where directories are 
reused this can simply wipe your index away or in combination with the FSync 
issue LUCENE-5570 create 0-byte files. I have a test that reproduces this issue
