: its strange i had a dismaxhandler and it had an empty value for ps field : i added a default value like 100 and the error disappeared.
I really wish the java compiler had an option so we could say "when compiling our code, treat this list of unchecked exceptions like checked exceptions" so we could prevent code that doesn't catch NumberFormatException from ever getting committed. I've got a patch that will improve the error message on this in the future... https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1635 : >> SEVERE: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "" : >> at : >> java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(NumberFormatException.java:48) : >> at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:468) : >> at java.lang.Integer.valueOf(Integer.java:553) -Hoss
