Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-7505:
-----------------------------------

I think this is fixed, the linux installer by default makes /opt/solr read-only 
to solr user and that's ok as long as you don't try to use that location for 
solr-home, pid or logs

> startup scripts - read-only install dir and other improvements

> Talking to a user on IRC, I've come across some things we could do better in 
> our startup scripts and the documentation around them.
>  * It's very difficult to make the entire install directory read-only from 
> the point of view of the RUNAS user.
>  ** The war must be extracted, by default this is done to server/solr-webapp.
>  ** Fixing this will require a few changes to the scripts as well as some 
> additions to the documentation.  I'm not suggesting that we make this a 
> default setup, just provide information on how a user can accomplish it.
>  * If SOLR_ENV is pointed at a script that is empty, nonexistent, or only 
> includes minimal user settings, the settings for default max heap and GC 
> tuning are lost, and return to undesirable Java defaults.  I believe that a 
> user env file should *supplement* solr.in.{sh,cmd}, not *replace* it.  The 
> user can always completely override the provided defaults in their env file.
> There were some other ideas I had, will update if I remember them.
