I'm trying to follow the Solr Tutorial ( https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/8_5/solr-tutorial.html#solr-tutorial).
Yesterday, "bin/solr start" worked fine -- I could see the status page on http://localhost:8993 . I even created a test config server/solr/test1 through the Web interface. Today, I'm getting an error message when I try to start Solr. This is from an Ubuntu top-level shell (I previously tried a shell buffer within Emacs under Ubuntu, which failed). I've rebooted Windows, and it still fails. See transcript and version info below. What am I doing wrong? -- and is solr-user the right place to ask newbie questions like this? (None of the env variables mentioned in the error message are defined.) ----------------transcript---------------- xxx:/mnt/c/solr-8.5.1$ bin/solr status -help No Solr nodes are running. xxx:/mnt/c/solr-8.5.1$ bin/solr start Waiting up to 180 seconds to see Solr running on port 8983 [|] bin/solr: line 669: 8456 Aborted (core dumped) nohup "$JAVA" "${SOLR_START_OPTS[@]}" $SOLR_ADDL_ARGS -Dsolr.log.muteconsole "-XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=$SOLR_TIP/bin/oom_solr.sh $SOLR_PORT $SOLR_LOGS_DIR" -jar start.jar "${SOLR_JETTY_CONFIG[@]}" $SOLR_JETTY_ADDL_CONFIG > "$SOLR_LOGS_DIR/solr-$SOLR_PORT-console.log" 2>&1 [/] Still not seeing Solr listening on 8983 after 180 seconds! tail: cannot open '/mnt/c/solr-8.5.1/server/logs/solr.log' for reading: No such file or directory xxx:/mnt/c/solr-8.5.1$ echo foo > /mnt/c/solr-8.5.1/server/logs/solr.log xxx:/mnt/c/solr-8.5.1$ cat /mnt/c/solr-8.5.1/server/logs/solr.log foo <<< log file is writeable ------------versions ------------ xxx:/mnt/c/solr-8.5.1$ uname -a Linux DESKTOP-M6LDB7Q 4.4.0-18362-Microsoft #836-Microsoft Mon May 05 16:04:00 PST 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux xxx:/mnt/c/solr-8.5.1$ which java /usr/bin/java xxx:/mnt/c/solr-8.5.1$ java -version openjdk version "11.0.7" 2020-04-14 OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 11.0.7+10-post-Ubuntu-2ubuntu218.04) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0.7+10-post-Ubuntu-2ubuntu218.04, mixed mode, sharing) xxx:/mnt/c/solr-8.5.1$ bin/solr -version 8.5.1
