Hoss Man created SOLR-11441:
-------------------------------
Summary: windows shell splits args on "=" so we should consider
updating our docs to always quote args like -Dfoo=bar or improve bin/solr.cmd
to account for this
Key: SOLR-11441
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11441
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
Components: documentation, scripts and tools
Environment: Windows 10, possible other versions as well (presumably
not when running cygwin?)
Reporter: Hoss Man
confusing exchange with a user on freenode#solr led to this discovery...

14:07 < sara_:#solr> New question: bin/solr start -e techproducts
-Dsolr.ltr.enabled=true
14:07 < sara_:#solr> gave me invalid command-line option:true
14:07 < sara_:#solr> anyone knows why?
...
15:02 < sara_:#solr> i have 6.6.1 @elyograg
15:03 < sara_:#solr> mine is a windows 10 machine
...
15:28 < sara_:#solr> @elyograg i just downloaded solr-7.0.0 and ran bin/solr
start -e techproducts -Dsolr.ltr.enabled=true
15:28 < sara_:#solr> it still gave me invalid command-line
...
15:29 <@hoss:#solr> sara_: the only thing i can think of is that windows 10 is
splitting your command line on '=' ? ... can you try
quoting the entire command line arg so the script gets the
entire -Dsolr.ltr.enabled=true ? (not sure how to quote
strings in the windows command shell -- i would assume
"-Dsolr.ltr.enabled=true"
15:32 <@hoss:#solr> sigh ... yes, aparently windows things "=" is a shell
delimiter: https://ss64.com/nt/syntax-esc.html
15:33 <@hoss:#solr> s/shell delimiter/parameter delimiter in shell commands/
15:33 < sara_:#solr> you are genius!
15:34 < sara_:#solr> you and elyograg. you guys are fantastic. Saving me from
looking at the cmd script or shell script....
15:34 <@hoss:#solr> sara_: do i have your permission to copy/paste this
exchange into our bug tracker as a note about updating our docs
(and maybe making the solr.cmd smart enough to handle this)
?
15:45 < sara_:#solr> sure of course
