there is a strange behavior which seems to affect hudson today (March 3rd) build but not (for example) hudson February 2th build. Basically when I start the multicore enviroment, it just create datadir in the current path. To replicate: 1. download latest trunk 2. go to example directory
$ ls README.txt example-DIH exampledocs logs solr start.jar work etc exampleAnalysis lib multicore start.bat webapps $ java -Dsolr.solr.home=multicore -jar start.jar (then kill/sleep the process) $ ls README.txt etc exampledocs multicore start.jar core0 example-DIH lib solr webapps core1 exampleAnalysis logs start.bat work you see core0 and core1 directory where they should not be :-); solr-1041 doesn't fix in this case. ciao, Walter
