Context: Solr 5.3.1 with ZooKeeper 3.4.6 (SolrCloud) Via the REST APU I am trying to create a collection and tie it to a configuration I have loaded into ZooKeeper
Here are the configs loaded into ZooKeeper [zk: localhost:2181(CONNECTED) 5] ls /configs [scbe_public7, mycollection, scbe_public_conf] Here is my Curl command with scbe_public7 as the configName $ curl -X -v "http://XX.XX.XX.XX:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=tmp2&numShards=3&replicationFactor=2&maxShardsPerNode=1&collection.configName=scbe_public7"; <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <response> <lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">400</int><int name="QTime">28</int></lst><str name="Operation create caused exception:">org.apache.solr.common.SolrException:org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Can not find the specified config set: scbe_public7</str><lst name="exception"><str name="msg">Can not find the specified config set: scbe_public7</str><int name="rspCode">400</int></lst><lst name="error"><str name="msg">Can not find the specified config set: scbe_public7</str><int name="code">400</int></lst> </response> And if I try the following I get $ curl -X -v "http://XX.XX.XX.XX:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=tmp2&numShards=3&replicationFactor=2&maxShardsPerNode=1&collection.configName=/configs/scbe_public7"; <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <response> <lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">500</int><int name="QTime">29</int></lst><str name="Operation create caused exception:">java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid path string "/configs//configs/scbe_public7" caused by empty node name specified @9</str><lst name="exception"><str name="msg">Invalid path string "/configs//configs/scbe_public7" caused by empty node name specified @9</str><int name="rspCode">-1</int></lst><lst name="error"><str name="msg">Invalid path string "/configs//configs/scbe_public7" caused by empty node name specified @9</str><str name="trace">org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Invalid path string "/configs//configs/scbe_public7" caused by empty node name specified Interestingly it will let me create WITHOUT specifying the config curl -X -v "http://XX.XX.XX.XX:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=tmp2&numShards=3&replicationFactor=2&maxShardsPerNode=1"; <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <response> <lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int><int name="QTime">2699</int></lst><lst name="success"><lst><lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int><int name="QTime">2042</int></lst><str name="core">tmp2_shard3_replica1</str></lst><lst><lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int><int name="QTime">2066</int></lst><str name="core">tmp2_shard1_replica1</str></lst><lst><lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int><int name="QTime">2088</int></lst><str name="core">tmp2_shard2_replica2</str></lst><lst><lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int><int name="QTime">2485</int></lst><str name="core">tmp2_shard3_replica2</str></lst><lst><lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int><int name="QTime">2531</int></lst><str name="core">tmp2_shard1_replica2</str></lst><lst><lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int><int name="QTime">2554</int></lst><str name="core">tmp2_shard2_replica1</str></lst></lst> </response> And it will be tied to (from CLUSTERSTATUS) "configName": "mycollection" This does not match the Documentation which states https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Collections+API#CollectionsAPI-api1 collection.configName "Defines the name of the configurations (which must already be stored in ZooKeeper) to use for this collection. If not provided, Solr will default to the collection name as the configuration name.” So I am confused on two things 1. Why doesn’t Solr see the ZooKeeper config I specified (or alternatively, is my syntax for the configName incorrect?) 2. When the config is not specified why does it default to “mycollection" and not to the collection name (and thus cause an error because ’tmp2’ is not a config ) Thanks! -Frank Frank Kelly Principal Software Engineer Predictive Analytics Team (SCBE/HAC/CDA) Email: f<mailto:frank.ke...@here.com>r<mailto:frank.ke...@here.com>ank.ke...@here.com<mailto:frank.ke...@here.com> Website: http://www.here.com<http://www.here.com/> 5 Wayside Rd, Burlington, MA 01803, USA Here, a Nokia business
