No <cores>-element in my solr.xml My folder structure looks alike: [solr] -solr.xml -[configsets] ... -[cores] --[de] ---[data] ... --[fr] ... --[it] ...
So you say, if I copy an empty core.proerties file into the [cores] folder it should work? Even with 4.10.3? Thanks also for all your warnings going the "bleeding edge"-way! -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Shawn Heisey [mailto:apa...@elyograg.org] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 29.

I'm not sure how it's working without core.properties files, unless your solr.xml file has a <cores> element and the cores are defined there. The old-style solr.xml file works in 4.10.3. The minimum config you need in a core.properties file is nothing at all -- it just needs to exist. The name of the core defaults to the name of the directory where it is found, and the dataDir defaults to "data" relative to the directory where the core.properties was found. I myself only have "name" and "dataDir" defined in my core.properties files, because I need both to be different from the default.

The first release of a new major version is always a risky proposition ... I plan to wait for the 5.2 or 5.3 release before rolling it into production, and waiting long enough after the release to make sure that no big problems are reported by users. Minor Lucene/Solr releases happen on a very quick timeline, so I won't have to wait very long. The following info is available on the dev list, so I'm not giving away any secrets when I tell you that the first release candidate for 5.0 has failed to pass the vote. There will be a new one soon that includes some additional bugfixes. If all goes well with that candidate, there should be a release announcement within a week of the new RC being cut. Thanks, Shawn
