Jason Gerlowski created SOLR-17883:
--------------------------------------
Summary: "bin/solr" tools should have more expansive classpath
Key: SOLR-17883
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-17883
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: SolrCLI
Affects Versions: 9.9
Reporter: Jason Gerlowski
The ref-guide singles out {{<solr_install>/lib}} as being a particularly good
place to put plugin jars during Dockerfile packaging:
bq. The .jar files placed here are available to all Solr cores running on the
node, and to node level plugins referenced in solr.xml — so basically
everything. Contrary to <solr_home>/lib/, this directory is always located in
the install dir, so it can be used e.g. for custom Dockerfile to place custom
plugin jars.
But this comes with a bit of a hidden catch: the directory is on the classpath
of Solr server, but it's *not* on the classpath for "bin/solr" tools more
generally. There may be other cases, but I've seen this cause issues with
"bin/solr zk" in particular, where users may want to use their own
ZkAclProvider or ZkCredProvider implementations with "bin/solr zk".
We should add {{<solr_install>/lib}} to the tool classpath, or update the
ref-guide with other guidance on where jars can be placed to be loadable by the
bin/solr tools.
