Based on your description of the problem, and the fact that explicitly setting configSetBaseDir in your solr.xml works, I suspect there is some sort of weird bug in how the "default" configSetBaseDir is determined in some diff code paths in Solr.
We should definitely file a jira issue tracking this -- i would have done so already, but to be completley honest: I got a little lost in reading your initial email as far as how you have solr installed, and how you are running it. Can you please create a new "Solr" jira here... https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/CreateIssue!default.jspa ... and include the following details... 1) a description of how you installed solr - directory listings of the various dirs making it clear which files are where would be helpful. 2) a copy of the solr.in.sh * solr.xml files for each "project" 3) an example of exactly how you start solr (ie: the exact bin/solr command you run) 4) the exact error you get when creating a collection depending on which directory does/doesn't contain a configset. (Ideally: to make it really clear what's going on, it would be great if you could run this test with a "foo" configset in one dir, and a "bar" configset in the other dir, and show us what the diff error messages look like depending on which configset you try to use) 5) note how things change when you add configSetBaseDir Does that make sense? : Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2017 16:38:33 -0700 (MST) : From: Renee Sun <renee_...@mcafee.com> : Reply-To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org : To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org : Subject: Re: project related configsets need to be deployed in both data and : solr install folders ? : : Thanks Erick! : : I looked at solr twiki though if configSetBaseDir is not set, the default : should be SOLR_HOME/configsets: : : configSetBaseDir : : The directory under which configsets for solr cores can be found.
