One possible problem: The bin/solr script (which is used by the init script) only waits for 5 seconds for Solr to stop gracefully before killingit forcibly. This can leave write.lock files behind. I thought it had increased to 30 seconds in a recent version and that it was possibly even configurable in solr.in.sh, but I just checked the 6.0.0 download. It's still only 5 seconds, and the value is hard-coded in the script. This is only enough time if you have a very small number of very small indexes. Thanks, Shawn
