: But when I update data like http://localhost:8080/solr/whatever3/update?commit=true";, the data : did not go to the newly specified dataDir (I can see core "whatver3" is apparently used from log)? : : Only way to make it work is NOT to define dataDir in solrconfig.xml, is this by design or I missed : sth?
I can't reproduce the problem you are seeing -- can you please provide more details.. 1) what does your full solr.xml file look like after creating the new core? 2) what does the CoreAdminHandler (ie: probably /admin/cores - depends on your solr.xml file) return after you create the new core? 3) what does the dataDir section in the solrconfig.xml you are using when creating the whatver3 core look like? -Hoss
