> The "-jettyconfig" optiona (aka "-j") is documented as...
> {noformat}
> -j <jettyParams> Additional parameters to pass to Jetty when starting Solr.
> For example, to add configuration folder that jetty should read
> you could pass: -j "--include-jetty-dir=/etc/jetty/custom/server/"
> In most cases, you should wrap the additional parameters in double quotes.
> {noformat}
> ..but if you actually attempt to run use that example option, you will get an error...
> {noformat}
> ./bin/solr start ... -j "--include-jetty-dir=/etc/jetty/custom/server/"
> ERROR: Jetty config is required when using the -j option!
> {noformat}
> IIUC this is because the bash code for parsing this option requires that it not start with a "{{\-}}" character; but by definition any option you want to pass to jetty will start with "{{\--}}".
> Attempting to workaround this problem by using two sets of quotes doesn't seem to work -- the inner quotes are passed verbatim to jetty which seems to prevent jetty from recognizing it as a valid option.
> A workaround that *does* seem to work (in my limited testing) is to include a leading space character _inside_ the quotes...
> {noformat}
> ./bin/solr start ... -j " --include-jetty-dir=/etc/jetty/custom/server/"
> {noformat}
> ...because for some reason that does *NOT* seem to be passed verbatim.
