[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-3284) StreamingUpdateSolrServer swallows exceptions

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3284?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13530665#comment-13530665 ] 

Mark Miller commented on SOLR-3284:
-----------------------------------

I'd love to see a way to get back specific error information about fails. That seems preferable to just stopping  or throwing an exception in a lot of cases. It would be nice to treat different cases separatley though - eg bad doc vs down server.

> StreamingUpdateSolrServer eats exceptions thrown by lower level code, such as HttpClient, when doing adds.  It may happen with other methods, though I know that query and deleteByQuery will throw exceptions.  I believe that this is a result of the queue/Runner design.  That's what makes SUSS perform better, but it means you sacrifice the ability to programmatically determine that there was a problem with your update.  All errors are logged via slf4j, but that's not terribly helpful except with determining what went wrong after the fact.
> When using CommonsHttpSolrServer, I've been able to rely on getting an exception thrown by pretty much any error, letting me use try/catch to detect problems.
> There's probably enough dependent code out there that it would not be a good idea to change the design of SUSS, unless there were alternate constructors or additional methods available to configure new/old behavior.  Fixing this is probably not trivial, so it's probably a better idea to come up with a new server object based on CHSS.  This is outside my current skillset.
