Tommaso Teofili commented on SOLR-2983:
---------------------------------------
I just noticed also the toIndexWriter method should be explicitly tested, going
to work on it and attach a new patch
> Unable to load custom MergePolicy

> Key: SOLR-2983
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2983
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Mathias Herberts
> Assignee: Tommaso Teofili
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 3.6, 4.0

> Attachments: SOLR-2983.patch

> As part of a recent upgrade to Solr 3.5.0 we encountered an error related to
> our use of LinkedIn's ZoieMergePolicy.
> It seems the code that loads a custom MergePolicy was at some point moved
> into SolrIndexConfig.java from SolrIndexWriter.java, but as this code was
> copied verbatim it now contains a bug:
> try {
> policy = (MergePolicy)
> schema.getResourceLoader().newInstance(mpClassName, null, new
> Class[]{IndexWriter.class}, new Object[]{this});
> } catch (Exception e) {
> policy = (MergePolicy)
> schema.getResourceLoader().newInstance(mpClassName);
> }
> 'this' is no longer an IndexWriter but a SolrIndexConfig, therefore the call
> to newInstance will always throw an exception and the catch clause will be
> executed. If the custom MergePolicy does not have a default constructor
> (which is the case of ZoieMergePolicy), the second attempt to create the
> MergePolicy will also fail and Solr won't start.
