So, upgraded to 4.2 this morning. I had gotten to the point where I okay with the collection creation process in 4.1 using the API vice the solr.xml file in 4.0, but now 4.2 doesn't seem to want to create the instanceDir?
e.g. the Dashboard reports the following when my solr.data.dir is set to /data/solr in the solrconfig.xml. However, the instance dirs aren't created, yet the index and tlog dirs are Instance /data/solr/collection1_shard1_replica1 Data /data/solr Index /data/solr/index - Chris On Thu, Mar 28, 2013 at 7:48 PM, Mark Miller <markrmil...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On Mar 28, 2013, at 7:30 PM, Shawn Heisey <s...@elyograg.org> wrote: > > > Can't you leave numShards out completely, then include a numShards > parameter on a collection api CREATE url, possibly giving a different > numShards to each collection? > > > > Thanks, > > Shawn > > > > Yes - that's why I say the collections API is the way forward - it has > none of these limitations.
