Hoss Man commented on SOLR-4173:
--------------------------------
was chatting with steffkes about this a bit on IRC, my suggesting would be to
modify SolrDispatchFilter such that:
* If a valid core is found, AND
* If there is no handler path specified (ie: "" or "/", not "/bogus" which the
core says isn't registered to anything)
Then redirect the request to "/webappname/#/corename" (ie: the main view of
that core in the admin UI). Alternatively, if we really want to give the user
a "you are miss-using the SolrJ URL" yep screen, then redirect to
"/webappname/#/corename/access_url" and implement that as a new
HTML/jquery/whatever screen.
The place to put this redirect would be somewhere arround L229 of
SolrDispatchFilter...
{noformat}
// Determine the handler from the url path if not set
// (we might already have selected the cores handler)
if( handler == null && path.length() > 1 ) { // don't match "" or "/"
as valid path
{noformat}
> SolrJ API base URL returns 404 - print helpful message instead

> Key: SOLR-4173
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4173
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: web gui
> Affects Versions: 4.0
> Reporter: Shawn Heisey
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.2, 5.0
>
>
> If you put the URL that's correct for an API like SolrJ into a browser, you
> get a 404 error.
> It would be really helpful if it were to instead display a helpful message
> letting a user know that they have accessed the core's base URL, which is
> only useful in API calls.
> It should offer a link with its own URL as a handy place to right-click &
> copy. That self-link should either have or not have the trailing slash,
> according to what is the current recommended practice. Side note: I do
> include the trailing slash in my SolrJ URLs.
> The message should probably also offer a link back to the admin GUI page for
> that core, and any other links that people might find useful.
