: Now all that is left is a more cosmetic change I would like to make: : I tried to place the solr.xml in the example dir to get rid of the : "-Dsolr.solr.home=multicore" for the start and changed the first entry : from "core0" to "solr" and moved the core1 dir from multicore directly : under the example dir : Idea behind all this: Use the original single core under "solr" as core0 : and add a second one on the same directory level ("core1" parallel to : "solr"). Then I started solr with the old "java -jar start.jar" in the : "example" dir. But the multicore config seems to be ignored then, I get
solr looks for conf/solr.xml relative the "Solr Home Dir" and if it doesn't find it then it looks for conf/solrconfig.xml ... if you don't set the solr.solr.home system property then the Solr Home Dir defaults to "./solr/" so putting your new solr.xml file in example/solr/conf should be what you are looking for. -Hoss
