             Summary: OpenExchangeRatesOrgProvider needs to require a 
ratesFileLocation
                 Key: SOLR-4515
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4515
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Hoss Man


OpenExchangeRatesOrgProvider currently defaults the value of the 
"ratesFileLocation" init param to "http://openexchangerates.org/latest.json"; -- 
but that URL currently 301 redirects to a page with the following information...

{panel}
Notice: App ID Required
As per public notices beginning June 2012, an App ID is required to access the 
Open Exchange Rates API. It's free for personal use, a bargain for your 
business. You can sign up here ยป 
{panel}

...so we should update the code to require users to be explicit about their URL 
(including APP_ID) or point to a local file.  As things stand right now, anyone 
who configures this provider w/o explicitly setting ratesFileLocation ges a 
clean startup, but anytime they attempt to use the fieldtype to do a conversion 
they get an error that "No available conversion rate from USD to USD. Available 
rates are []"
