Hi We are running master/slave Solr 1.3 version on production since about 5 months.
Yesterday, we faced following issue on one of the slaves for the first time because of which we had to restart the slave. SEVERE: Could not start SOLR. Check solr/home property java.lang.RuntimeException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: no segments* file found in org.apache.lucene.store.FSDirectory@/opt/solr/solr_slave/solr/data/index: files: null I searched on forums but couldn't find any relevant info which could have possibly caused the issue. In snapinstaller logs, following failed logs were observed: 2010/01/11 04:20:06 started by solr 2010/01/11 04:20:06 command: /opt/solr/solr_slave/solr/solr/bin/snapinstaller 2010/01/11 04:20:07 installing snapshot /opt/solr/solr_slave/solr/data/snapshot.20100111041402 2010/01/11 04:20:07 notifing Solr to open a new Searcher 2010/01/11 04:20:07 failed to connect to Solr server 2010/01/11 04:20:07 snapshot installed but Solr server has not open a new Searcher 2010/01/11 04:20:08 failed (elapsed time: 1 sec) Configurations: There are 2 search servers in a virtualized VMware environment. Each has 2 instances of Solr running on separates ports in tomcat. Server 1: hosts 1 master(application 1), 1 slave (application 1) Server 2: hosta 1 master (application 2), 1 slave (application 1) Both servers have 4 CPUs and 4 GB RAM. Master - 4GB RAM - 1GB JVM Heap memory is allocated to Solr Slave1/Slave2: - 4GB RAM - 2GB JVM Heap memory is allocated to Solr Can there be any possible reasons that solr/home property couldn't be found? Thanks Dipti
