Solr 5 has been released. I was just giving a try and come across the same issue. As I heard over from some documentation, Solr 5 doesn't come with default core (example in earlier versions). And this requires us to create a core from Solr Admin. When I tried to create the core, I get the following error
Error CREATEing SolrCore 'inventory': Unable to create core [inventory] Caused by: Can't find resource 'solrconfig.xml' in classpath or '/Users/manjunath.reddy/Programming/Solr/solr-5.0.0/server/solr/inventory/conf' So I had to manually create the core based on my previous experience with Solr 4.10 version. I guess its quite misleading for new users of Solr. I like the older versions of Solr that comes with default cores so that It would be easier to follow up on. I have attached screen shots for the reference. Is there a work around for this? <http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/file/n4191378/solr-1.png> <http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/file/n4191378/solr-2.png> -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Core-admin-create-new-core-tp4099127p4191378.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
