Hi Otis, Thanks, Before I sent my first email to solr-user, I checked the follows:
1. Disk is not full, there is 40G available. 2. There is not snapshot created last midnight under solr/data folder. 3. I checked the log and there is no any new log for the snapshoter. 4. I sent the snapshoter command manually at 2008/05/02 11:04:00, the snapshot was created. Here it is a part of the log: ----------------------------------------------- 2008/05/01 05:30:50 started by solr 2008/05/01 05:30:50 command: /opt/solr-jetty/solr/bin/snapshooter 2008/05/01 05:30:50 taking snapshot /opt/solr-jetty/solr/data/snapshot.20080501053050 2008/05/01 05:30:50 ended (elapsed time: 0 sec) 2008/05/01 19:53:20 started by solr 2008/05/01 19:53:20 command: /opt/solr-jetty/solr/bin/snapshooter arg1 arg2 2008/05/01 19:53:20 taking snapshot /opt/solr-jetty/solr/data/snapshot.20080501195320 2008/05/01 19:53:20 ended (elapsed time: 0 sec) 2008/05/02 11:04:00 started by solr 2008/05/02 11:04:00 command: ./snapshooter 2008/05/02 11:04:00 taking snapshot /opt/solr-jetty/solr/data/snapshot.200805021 10400 2008/05/02 11:04:00 ended (elapsed time: 0 sec) ------------------------------------------------- After 2008/05/01 19:53:20, I am sure that we committed and optimized once around 2008/05/02 00:53:00. And I checked the log of our program which sends the commit and optimize to solr. There is no any exception. And I can see the commit and optimize having been sent to solr in the log. I don't think that the problem is in solr. There is probably a bug in our program. I don't think so as well. (Really??), checking again... The program and solr have been working fine for a few months. This is the second time I met this kind of problem.

You should have a look at the snapshooter log. Here are some other ideas: - What does "did not work" mean? No snapshot was created? - Is your disk/partition full? - Can you run commit or optimize now and see if snapshooter will work?
