Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-2586:
------------------------------------
bq. that still leaves the question of "logs". The only thing approaching use of
this directory is some commented-out configuration in jetty.xml.
We could either remove "logs" or add a README in it that tells people how to
set up logging to go to that directory instead of stdout.
But that could just as easily go in the README in "example" as well, along with
other info on stuff you may want to change to go into production. Or it could
live on a wiki page too... lots of choices.

> Key: SOLR-2586
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2586
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build
> Reporter: David Smiley
> Priority: Minor
>
> Firstly, what prompted this issue was me wanting to use a git solr mirror but
> finding that git's lack of empty-directory support made the "example" ant
> task fail. This task requires examples/work to be in place so that it can
> delete its contents. Fixing this was a simple matter of adding:
> {code:xml}
> <mkdir dir="${example}/work" /><!-- in case not there -->
> {code}
> Right before the delete task.
> But then it occurred to me, why even have a "work" directory since Jetty will
> apparently use a temp directory instead. -- try for yourself (stdout snippet):
> bq. 2011-06-11 00:51:26.177:INFO::Extract
> file:/SmileyDev/Search/lucene-solr/solr/example/webapps/solr.war to
> /var/folders/zo/zoQJvqc9E0076p0THiri+k+++TI/-Tmp-/Jetty_0_0_0_0_8983_solr.war__solr__k1kf17/webapp
> On my Mac, this same directory was used for multiple runs, so somehow Jetty
> or the VM figures out how to reuse it.
> Since this "example" setup isn't a *real* installation -- it's just for
> demonstration, arguably it should not contain what it doesn't need.
> Likewise, perhaps the empty example/logs directory should be deleted. It's
> not used by default any way.
