             Summary: Change default directory for infostream from CWD to dataDir
                 Key: SOLR-4878
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4878
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 4.3
            Reporter: Shawn Heisey
            Assignee: Shawn Heisey
             Fix For: 5.0, 4.4


The default directory for the infoStream file is CWD.  In a multicore system where all the cores share similar configs, the output from all cores is likely to end up in the same file.  Although this is sometimes the desired outcome, it seems less than ideal.  If you've got cores that literally share the same config file, or you're using SolrCloud where more than one core on the system uses the same config set, you won't have the option of putting different files in different configs.

If the default directory were dataDir rather than CWD, each core would get its own infostream file.  You could still get the original behavior by specifying an absolute path.
