Alexandre Rafalovitch created SOLR-6778:
-------------------------------------------
Summary: Dead end UX when following README
Key: SOLR-6778
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6778
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: documentation
Affects Versions: 5.0
Reporter: Alexandre Rafalovitch
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 5.0
After 'downloading' (building) Solr 5 distribution, the README says:
{quote}
To start Solr for the first time after installation, simply do:
bin/solr start -f
{quote}
That will bring Solr server up, but there is no longer a *collection1*, so we
get *no cores* message, clicking on which brings up an "Add new core" dialogue.
Which - of course - does not actually allow us to create a new core but will
just complain bitterly that one does not exist on the file system. And the
server will throw a scary stack exception.
We have a catch-22 here. So, either the README needs to go into *run an
example* sequence or ???
