If it works, great, but it is not generally advisable to have a large number of files under one directory. However, that is not the source of your error here. > But then when I looked in solr, I saw the following: > 04:34:41 > SEVERE > SolrCore > org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Invalid UTF-8 middle byte 0xe3 (at > char #10, byte #-1) [...] Your files seem to have some encoding other than UTF-8: My random guess would be Windows-1252. You need to convert the files to UTF-8. Regards, Gora
