Stu Hood commented on SOLR-329: ------------------------------- Yea Erik, you're right. I realized my issue was because the data directory was actually a symlink to the real storage area, and the symlink was broken. Sorry for the hasty report. > Solr should attempt to create the data directory if it doesn't exist > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-329 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-329 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Components: update > Affects Versions: 1.3 > Reporter: Stu Hood > Priority: Trivial > > Currently, if the data directory doesn't exist, Solr will fail to start. > Before failing, Solr should attempt to create the data directory. > In my case, the data directory is in the tmp folder, and so after a restart, > it has disappeared. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
