Thanks for revisiting this! There is detail here which I have never seen, especially step e) . I will probably attempt a removal/re-installation of Solr in a few hours. Here is the results of my status checks, using curl: root@media:~# curl http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores { "responseHeader":{ "status":0, "QTime":70}, "initFailures":{}, "status":{}} root@media:~# curl http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=STATUS { "responseHeader":{ "status":0, "QTime":1}, "initFailures":{}, "status":{}} root@media:~#
... I don't see any DSpace names mentioned in these returns, so I am guessing there is an issue here. On Tuesday, December 28, 2021 at 7:41:15 AM UTC-5 Mohammad S.
