Ryan Hesson created SOLR-6775: --------------------------------- Summary: Creating backup snapshot null pointer exception Key: SOLR-6775 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6775 Project: Solr Issue Type: Bug Components: replication (java) Affects Versions: 4.10 Environment: Linux Server, Java version "1.7.0_21", Solr version 4.10.0 Reporter: Ryan Hesson
I set up Solr Replication. I have one master on a server, one slave on another server. The replication of data appears functioning correctly. The issue is when the master SOLR tries to create a snapshot backup it gets a null pointer exception. org.apache.solr.handler.SnapShooter createSnapshot method calls org.apache.solr.handler.SnapPuller.delTree(snapShotDir); at line 162 and the exception happens within org.apache.solr.handler.SnapPuller at line 1026 because snapShotDir is null. Here is the actual log output: 58319963 [qtp12610551-16] INFO org.apache.solr.core.SolrCore - newest commit generation = 349 58319983 [Thread-19] INFO org.apache.solr.handler.SnapShooter - Creating backup snapshot... Exception in thread "Thread-19" java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.solr.handler.SnapPuller.delTree(SnapPuller.java:1026) at org.apache.solr.handler.SnapShooter.createSnapshot(SnapShooter.java:162) at org.apache.solr.handler.SnapShooter$1.run(SnapShooter.java:91) I may have missed how to set the directory in the documentation but I've looked around without much luck. I thought the process was to use the same directory as the index data for the snapshots. Is this a known issue with this release or am I missing how to set the value? If someone could tell me how to set snapshotdir or confirm that it is an issue and a different way of backing up the index is needed it would be much appreciated. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
