Mark Miller commented on SOLR-3617:
-----------------------------------
So I guess some things to consider here...where do we put the scripts?
In example? In example bin?
If we just have one start.sh/start.bat scripts and one stop.sh/stop.bat script,
just example seems good to me. But if we wanted to have start-dev and
start-prod or something, perhaps bin is better due to the number?
example/start.sh is very clear to me - but I'd like to have one fully
configured for logging and what not, and the other more dev friendly (log to
console).
(one thing I forgot to mention is that this allows us to have a nice
preconfigured stop scripts as well.

> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Mark Miller
>
> I've always found that starting Solr with java -jar start.jar is a little odd
> if you are not a java guy, but I think there are bigger pros than looking
> less odd in shipping some start scripts.
> Not only do you get a cleaner start command:
> sh solr.sh or solr.bat or something
> But you also can do a couple other little nice things:
> * it becomes fairly obvious for a new casual user to see how to start the
> system without reading doc.
> * you can make the working dir the location of the script - this lets you
> call the start script from another dir and still have all the relative dir
> setup work.
> * have an out of the box place to save startup params like -Xmx.
> * we could have multiple start scripts - say solr-dev.sh that logged to the
> console and default to sys default for RAM - and also solr-prod which was
> fully configured for logging, pegged Xms and Xmx at some larger value (1GB?)
> etc.
> You would still of course be able to make the java cmd directly - and that is
> probably what you would do when it's time to run as a service - but these
> could be good starter scripts to get people on the right track and improve
> the initial user experience.
