Eric Pugh commented on SOLR-13422:
----------------------------------

[~agger]  would you be interested in testing this on main?   The bin/post 
script has been replaced by running via bin/solr post, and the logic has been 
moved into the Java code.   I'm hoping the mode issue you are hitting no longer 
applies.  

> bin/post command not working when run from crontab

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-13422
>             Project: Solr
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: scripts and tools
>    Affects Versions: 7.5, 7.7.1
>            Reporter: Carsten Agger

> I'm working with a script where I want to send a command to delete all 
> elements in an index; notably,
>  
> /opt/solr/bin/post -c <my collection> -d  
> "<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>" 
>  
> When run interactively, this works fine.
> However, when run automatically as a cron job, it gives this interesting 
> output:
>   Unrecognized argument:   "<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>"  
>   If this was intended to be a data file, it does not exist relative to /root
> The culprit seems to be these lines, 143-148:
>  if [[ ! -t 0 ]]; then
>       MODE="stdin"
>  else
>     #when no stdin exists and -d specified, the rest of the arguments
>     #are assumed to be strings to post as-is
>     MODE="args"
>   
> This code seems to be doing the opposite of what the comment says - it sets 
> MODE="stdin" if stdin is NOT a terminal, but if it IS (i.e., there IS an 
> stdin) it assumes the rest of the args can be posted as-is.
> On the other hand, if the condition is reversed, my command will fail 
> interactively but not when run as a cron job. Both options are, of course, 
> unsatisfactory.
> It _will_ actually work in both cases, if instead the command to delete the 
> contents of the index is written as:
>  echo "<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>" | /opt/solr/bin/post -c 
> departments -d 
> I've confirmed this bug in SOLR v. 7.7.1 and 7.5 - it is presumably present 
> in more versions.
> I've raised the issue on the solr-user mailing list, where I was asked to 
> file a Jira report.
