Noble Paul commented on SOLR-1621: ---------------------------------- bq. what are the supporting reasons? It gives transparency. And the user will be conscious about the existence of solr.xml . like tomcat offers the default web.xml which users usually don't edit. But tells the users that it exists and certain behaviour is driven from that . Users usually take the example and make the necessary changes. So technically they don't 'add' it. Anyway this is a minor technicality. > Deprecate deployments w/o solr.xml > ---------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-1621 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1621 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 1.5 > Reporter: Noble Paul > Fix For: 1.5 > > > supporting two different modes of deployments is turning out to be hard.
