             Summary: Initialize an empty solr-home
                 Key: SOLR-9575
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9575
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
            Reporter: David Smiley


The user may not want to use Solr's default solr-home dir location -- most 
likely to use a separate disk.  If you do this, there are two main problems:
* solr.xml & zoo.cfg aren't there
* configsets aren't there

Of course you could copy it manually but that's an extra step, and it's 
particularly annoying to add this step to a Docker setup.  Docker is all the 
rage these days, and for good reason.  If I mount a volume at 
/opt/solr/server/solr then it basically masks this part of the built-in Solr 
image (thus making configsets completely invisible) and points to some place 
that will be empty.  Solr obviously complains.  I could set the solr-home to 
some other path that I mount, but Solr would still complain about an empty 
solr-home -- no solr.xml

If solr-home is empty, and if it's a dir other than the default solr-home, then 
I think the solr-home should be initialized with solr.xml and zoo.cfg copied 
from the default solr-home.  I think configsets should be referenced from the 
default solr-home if there is no configsets dir in solr-home.
