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

             Summary: solr.log written to {solrRoot}/server/logs instead of location specified by SOLR_LOGS_DIR
                 Key: SOLR-9325
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9325
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
    Affects Versions: 6.0.1, 5.5.2
         Environment: 64-bit CentOS 7 with latest patches, JVM 1.8.0.92
            Reporter: Tim Parker


(6.1 is probably also affected, but we've been blocked by SOLR-9231)

solr.log should be written to the directory specified by the SOLR_LOGS_DIR environment variable, but instead it's written to {solrRoot}/server/logs.

This results in requiring that solr is installed on a writable device, which leads to two problems:
1) solr installation can't live on a shared device (single copy shared by two or more VMs)
2) solr installation is more difficult to lock down

Solr should be able to run without error in this test scenario:

burn the Solr directory tree onto a CD-ROM
Mount this CD as /solr
run Solr from there (with appropriate environment variables set, of course)
