             Summary: ReplicationHandler replicateAfter startup not showing 
commits after SOLR-3911
                 Key: SOLR-4380
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4380
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: replication (java)
    Affects Versions: 4.1, 4.0
            Reporter: Gregg Donovan


In the process of upgrading to 4.1 from 3.6, I've noticed that our
master servers do not show any commit points -- e.g. via 
http://127.0.0.1:8983/solr/collection1/replication?command=commits -- available 
until after a
new commit happens. So, for static indexes, replication doesn't happen
and for dynamic indexes, we have to wait until an incremental update
of master for slaves to see any commits.

Tracing through the code, it looks like the change that may have
effected us was part of 
[SOLR-3911|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3911], specifically 
commenting out the
initialization of the newIndexWriter in the [replicateAfterStartup
block [1]:
{code:java}
// TODO: perhaps this is no longer necessary then?
// core.getUpdateHandler().newIndexWriter(true);
{code}

I'm guessing this is commented out because it is assumed that
indexCommitPoint was going to be set by that block, but when a slave
requests commits, that goes back to
core.getDeletionPolicy().getCommits() to fetch the list of commits. If
no indexWriter has been initialized, then, as far as I can tell,
IndexDeletionPolicyWrapper#onInit will not have been called and there
will be no commits available.

By uncommenting this line, I was able to see commits on startup and slaves 
began to replicate successfully.
