Well, if an ephemeral node exists, restarting your Zookeeper ensemble will delete it. Not sure what the precursor here is.
Are you absolutely and totally sure you don't have a solr process still running on the node you try and start the shows this error? 'ps aux | grep solr' will show you all of the running Solr instances on a machine. Best, Erick On Tue, May 2, 2017 at 12:45 PM, Satya Marivada <satya.chaita...@gmail.com> wrote: > Any ideas?
