if your problem really is related to SOLR-6643, then you should be able to get more details by doing an explicit core creation using those config files *after* solr starts up (it's a quirk of where/how core loading is different on startup vs via the CoreAdminHandler - noted in the jira) that may help you pinpoint the problem. in theory: if the confgset is alread yin zk, then the CollectionAdmin CREATE commant will help you find hte same errors -- but my suggestion would be to keep it simple: single node solr, startup with no cores, then do core CREATE pointed at a directory with your configs and see what error you get. : : Darren : : On Wed, Jan 21, 2015 at 6:48 PM, Chris Hostetter <hossman_luc...@fucit.org> : wrote: : : > : > : I posted a question on stackoverflow but in hindsight this would have : > been : > : a better place to start.
