Hello, I am not that experienced but managed to get a Solr index going by copying the "example" dir from the distribution (1.3 released version) and changing the fields in schema.xml to my needs. As I said everything is working very well so far. Now I need a second index on the same machine and the natural solution seems to be multicore (I would really like to keep the two distinct so I didn't put everything in one index). But I have some problems setting this up. As long as I try the multicore sample everything works but when I copy my schema.xml into the multicore/core0/conf dir I only get 404 error messages when I enter the admin url. Looks like I cannot just copy over a single core config to a multicore environment and that is o.k., what I am missing is some guidance what to look out for. What are the settings that have to be adjusted to multicore? I would like to avoid trial and error for every single setting I have in my config.
And a related question: I would like to keep the existing data dir as core0-datadir (/path_to_installation/example/solr/data). Is this possible with the dataDir parameter? And if yes, what would be the correct value? "/solr/data/" or "/path_to_installation/example/solr/data/"? Do I need an absolute path or is it relative to the dir where my start.jar is? Thanks, Michael
