One more information I would like to add. The entry in solr stats page says this:
readerDir : org.apache.lucene.store.FSDirectory@/home/kk/solr/data/index when I ran from /home/kk and this: readerDir : org.apache.lucene.store.FSDirectory@ /home/kk/junk/solr/data/index after running from /home/kk/junk That assures the me the problem, but what is the solution? Thanks, KK.
