This 'solrctl' command is NOT part of Solr. Google tells me it's part of software from Cloudera. You need to talk to Cloudera for support on that software. > I have my collection schema in a location: > > /home/sshuser/abhi/ems-collection/conf > > Using this command to create a collection: > > http://headnode1:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=ems-collection&instanceDir=/home/sshuser/abhi/ems-collection/conf > <http://hn0-esohad.iqz04pwsg24ulbodxuo51nheig.jx.internal.cloudapp.net:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=ems-collection&instanceDir=/home/sshuser/abhi/ems-collection/conf/> > / You're using the term "collection". And later you mention ZooKeeper. So you're almost certainly running in SolrCloud mode. If your Solr is running in SolrCloud mode, do not try to use the CoreAdmin API (/solr/admin/cores). Use the Collections API instead. But before that, you need to get the configuration into ZooKeeper. For standard Solr without Cloudera's tools, you would typically use the "zkcli" script (either zkcli.sh or zkcli.bat). See page 376 of the reference guide for that specific version of Solr for help with the "upconfig" command for that script: http://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/solr/ref-guide/apache-solr-ref-guide-4.9.pdf > I guess i need to register my config name with Zk.

Cloudera customizes Solr to the point where only they are able to really provide support for their version. Your best bet will be to talk to Cloudera. When Solr is running with ZooKeeper, it's in SolrCloud mode. In SolrCloud mode, you cannot create cores in the same way that you can in standalone mode -- you MUST create collections, and all configuration will be in zookeeper, not on the disk. Thanks, Shawn
