Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-442: ----------------------------------- Ahhh, I had forgotten that the filename is derived from the fieldname. So if the field is named x, the file will be named external_x We should make the prefix configurable, so hopefully one would be able to set it to index/external_ if they want those files in the index directory. The issue is that today, replication only takes a snapshot of the index directory, so some people will have to use that until it's fixed. > FileFloatSource should read file from dataDir, not indexDir > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-442 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-442 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: search > Affects Versions: 1.3 > Reporter: Ryan McKinley > Assignee: Ryan McKinley > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.3 > > Attachments: SOLR-442-UseDataDir.patch > > > The FileFloatSource currently loads its file from the indexDir: > parser.getReq().getCore().getIndexDir() > This is a problem for an empty index since you get a FileNotFoundException. > Rather then using indexDir, this should use getDataDir() -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
