AW: Core admin action CREATE fails for existing core
Added the issue. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4857 Core admin action RELOAD lacks requests parameters to point core to another config or schema file or data dir Von: André Widhani [andre.widh...@digicol.de] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 23. Mai 2013 23:13 An: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Betreff: AW: Core admin action CREATE fails for existing core Ok - yes, will do so tomorrow.

It would be fairly simple to add another reload method that also took the name of a new solrconfig/schema file. - Mark On May 23, 2013, at 4:11 PM, André Widhani andre.widh...@digicol.de wrote: Mark, Alan, thanks for explaining and updating the wiki.
