Subject: How to avoid hardcoding masterUrl in slave solrconfig.xml?
Folks:
I do not want to hardcode the masterUrl in the solrconfig.xml of my slave.
If the masterUrl tag is missing from the config file, I am getting an
exception in solr saying that the masterUrl is required. So I set it to
some dummy value, comment out the poll interval element, and issue a
replication command manually like so:
http://localhost:port/postings/replication?command=fetchIndex&masterUrl=http://localhost:port/postingsmaster/replication
Now no internal exception, solr responds with a status "OK" for the above
request, the tomcat logs show no error but the index is not replicated.
When I issue the details command to the slave, I see that it ignored the
masterUrl on the command line but instead complains that the master url in
the config file (which I had set to a dummy value) is not correct.
(Just fyi, I have tried sending in the masterUrl to the above command with
url encoding and also without. in both cases, I got the same result.)
Soooo....how exactly do I avoid hardcoding the masterUrl in the config
file? Any pointers/help will be greatly appreciated!
