Hi wunder, for us, it works with internal dots when specifying the properties in $SOLR_HOME/[core]/conf/solrcore.properties:
like this: db.url=xxx db.user=yyy db.passwd=zzz $SOLR_HOME/[core]/conf/data-config.xml: <dataSource type="JdbcDataSource" driver="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver" url="${db.url}" user="${db.user}" password="${db.passwd}" batchSize="1000" /> Cheers, Chantal On Sat, 2012-01-21 at 01:01 +0100, Walter Underwood wrote: > Weird.
