Hi All,
I'm hoping this is a reasonably trivial issue, but it's frustrating me to no
end. I'm putting together a tiny command line app to write data into an
index. It has no web based Solr running against it; the index will be moved
at a later time to have a proper server instance start for responding to
queries. My problem however is I seem to have stalled on instantiating the
embedded server:
private SolrServer startSolr(String home) throws Exception {
try {
System.setProperty("solr.solr.home", home);
CoreContainer.Initializer initializer = new
CoreContainer.Initializer();
solrCore = initializer.initialize();
return new EmbeddedSolrServer(solrCore, "");
} catch(Exception ex) {
log.error("\n=======\nFailed to start Solr server\n");
throw ex;
}
}
The constructor for the embedded server just never comes back. I've seen
three or four different ways of starting the server with varying levels of
complexity, and they all APPEAR to work, but still do not return. STDOUT
show the output I have largely come to expect from watching Solr start
'correctly':

At this stage I'm grasping at straws. It appears as though the embedded
instance is behaving like a proper server, waiting for a request or
something. I've scrubbed the solrconfig.xml (from from the Solr example
download) file back to remove most entries, but perhaps I'm using the
incorrect handlers/listeners for an embedded server?
I'm a tad confused though, because every other time I've done this
(admittedly in a servlet, not a command line app) the constructor simply
returns straight away and execution of my app code continues.
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Ta,
Greg
