             Summary: Solr collection create/delete scripts do not support chroot zookeeper environment
                 Key: METRON-2312
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-2312
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Dale Richardson
            Assignee: Dale Richardson


When installing SOLR cloud, its been highly recommended to use the cluster zookeeper ensemble rather then installing your in own mini-zk cluster just for SOLR.  For the past several years, its been standard practice to use a chrooted / namespaced environment for storing solr information in zookeeper.   The practical effects of this is to need to prepend '/solr' to any zookeeper ensemble URLs.  The use of chrooted zookeeper configurations is the default in both lucidworks/HWX SOLR (from 4.0), and for Cloudera SOLR (not sure which version but for many years).  It has also been the documented recommendation for Apache SOLR Cloud since approximately 7.3, but an informal recommendation for a while before that.

End result is, if Metron is dealing with a SOLR cluster that has been installed or updated any time in the past couple of years, it is dealing with a SOLR configuration stored in a chrooted Zookeeper environment.  

The problem is the Metron SOLR collection create/destroy scripts assume that we are not using a CHROOTed environment, and fail badly when the expected SOLR configuration is not present at the expected location in SOLR.
