[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (SOLR-1621) Deprecate deployments w/o solr.xml

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1621?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12785791#action_12785791 ]

-----------------------------------------------------------

The proposed design.

Going forward for the single core example we will add a solr.xml to the $SOLR_HOME/solr directory whose content will look like

{code:xml}
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<solr persistent="false">
  <cores adminPath="/admin/cores">
    <!- "DEFAULT_CORE" is a special name . Solr will automatically create an alias "" for this name-->
    <core name="DEFAULT_CORE" instanceDir="." />    
  </cores>
</solr>
{code}

the core will be accessible by both the names

* http://host:port/solr/ ("" is an alias for DEFAULT_CORE )
* http://host:port/solr/DEFAULT_CORE

All coreadmin actions can be performed using the core name as DEFAULT_CORE. So all coreadmin features will work for single core as well

For legacy users who have single core deployments no change needs to be done. if the solr.xml is missing we will use a default solr.xml whose content is same as above. So everything will be backward compatible. We can mark the deployments w/o solr.xml as deprecated and the we can remove it completely later.

> supporting two different modes of deployments is turning out to be hard. This leads to duplication of code. Moreover there is a lot of confusion on where do we put common configuration. See the mail thread http://markmail.org/message/3m3rqvp2ckausjnf
