Generally, creating a collection may also include uploading a zookeeper configuration:
import org.apache.solr.common.cloud.SolrZkClient; import org.apache.solr.common.cloud.ZkConfigManager; import org.apache.solr.common.cloud.ZkStateReader; /* ... much later ... */ SolrZkClient zkClient = something.getZkClient(); ZkConfigManager configManager = new ZkConfigManager(zkClient); String confName = something.getConfigName(); configManager.uploadConfigDir(something.getPath(), confName); Creating the collection looks like this: import org.apache.solr.client.solrj.SolrClient; import org.apache.solr.client.solrj.SolrServerException; import org.apache.solr.client.solrj.request.CollectionAdminRequest; import org.apache.solr.client.solrj.response.CollectionAdminResponse; /* ... later ... */ CollectionAdminResponse response = new CollectionAdminResponse(); CollectionAdminRequest.Create request = new CollectionAdminRequest.Create(); request.setConfigName(something.getConfigName()); request.setCollectionName(collectionName); request.setNumShards(1); // TODO: edit request.setReplicationFactor(1); // TODO: edit response.setResponse(client.request(request)); -----Original Message----- From: Shawn Heisey [mailto:apa...@elyograg.org] Sent: Wednesday, February 10, 2016 11:24 AM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: Solrj-collection creation On 2/10/2016 6:55 AM, vidya wrote: > I want to connect to solrCloud server from java program using > zookeeperHost variable.

Use the CloudSolrClient object in the SolrJ API. It accepts a zkHost string. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Using+SolrJ I'm not sure exactly how to do the collection create, but it will probably involve this object: https://lucene.apache.org/solr/5_4_1/solr-solrj/org/apache/solr/client/solrj/request/CollectionAdminRequest.Create.html > My problem is that i cannot access solr web page, i'm getting an error > like "defected tokens detected".

It must be coming from some other aspect of your environment. Can you get a screenshot or log entry showing the problem, place it on the Internet somewhere, and provide a link? Thanks, Shawn
