[jira] [Comment Edited] (SOLR-7323) Core Admin API looks for config
sets in wrong directory
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7323?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14385467#comment-14385467 ]

The installer sets SOLR_HOME to `/var/solr/data`, and *I* haven't changed that.

The Solr home directory (not to be confused with the Solr installation directory) is where Solr reads its main configuration file solr.xml and manages index files. By default, the installation script uses /var/solr/data. Take a moment to inspect the contents of the Solr home directory on your system. At a minimum, the home directory will contain a solr.xml file. When Solr starts up, the Solr start script passes the location of the home directory using the -Dsolr.solr.home system property.

But the installer puts the config sets in the Solr installation directory (/opt/solr), not SOLR_HOME (/var/solr). So something isn't right.
* EITHER Solr should look for config sets where the installer puts them in /opt/solr (or at least have the option to pass in an absolute path).
* OR the installer should put config sets in /var/solr, where Solr will actually look for them.
* OR installation guide should instruct to copy config sets from Solr install dir to Solr home. (This is the least desirable fix, though, what's the point of an installer if you have to finish the installation manually?)

> Core Admin API looks for config sets in wrong directory

>
> Key: SOLR-7323
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7323
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Server
> Affects Versions: 5.0
> Reporter: Mark Haase
>
> *To Reproduce*
> Try to create a core using Core Admin API and a config set:
> {code}
> curl 'http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=new_core&configSet=basic_configs'
> {code}
> *Expected Outcome*
> Core is created in `/var/solr/data/new_core` using one of the config sets installed by the installer script in `/opt/solr/server/solr/configsets/basic_configs`.
> *Actual Outcome*
> {code}
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <response>
> <lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">400</int><int name="QTime">9</int></lst><lst name="error"><str name="msg">Error CREATEing SolrCore 'new_core': Unable to create core [new_core] Caused by: Could not load configuration from directory /var/solr/data/configsets/basic_configs</str><int name="code">400</int></lst>
> </response>
> {code}
> Why is it looking for config sets in /var/solr/data? I don't know. If that's where configsets are supposed to be placed, then why does the installer put them somewhere else?
> There's no documented API to tell it to look for config sets anywhere else, either. It will always search inside /var/solr/data.
