Dear Patrick, I disagree with your conclusion that I presumably changed the jar all over. It's not true. I tried to replace it only in solr i.e. in the client. I don't even have write permissions to change the zookeeper service deployment. Because solr extends the class QuorumPeerConfig:
"...class SolrZkServerProps extends QuorumPeerConfig {...." And because SolrZkServerProps reference the clientPort field in its super class - it cant compile once you change the jar and eliminate this field... yatir -----Original Message----- From: Patrick Hunt [mailto:ph...@apache.org] Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2010 7:32 PM To: zookeeper-user@hadoop.apache.org Subject: Re: possible bug in zookeeper ?

It seems that solr is using some of our lower layer apis. Just change the jar on the client, not everywhere, and retry. The logs should contain the exact connect string used. Also try increasing the logging level to debug or trace on the client, which might provide addl insight. Patrick
