Hello! You can try doing the following:
1. Run Solr with no collection and no cores, just an empty solr.xml 2. If you don't have a ZooKeeper run Solr with -DzkRun 3. Upload you configurations to ZooKeeper, by running cloud-scripts/zkcli.sh -cmdupconfig -zkhost localhost:9983 -confdir CONFIGURATION_1_DIR -confname COLLECTION_1_NAME and cloud-scripts/zkcli.sh -cmdupconfig -zkhost localhost:9983 -confdir CONFIGURATION_2_DIR -confname COLLECTION_2_NAME 4. Create those two collections: curl 'http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=COLLECTION_1_NAME&numShards=2&replicationFactor=0' and curl 'http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=COLLECTION_2_NAME&numShards=2&replicationFactor=0' Of course the CONFIGURATION_1_DIR and CONFIGURATION_2_DIR is the directory where your configurations are stored and the COLLECTION_1_NAME and the COLLECTION_2_NAME are your collection names. Also adjust the numShards and replicationFactor to your needs. -- Regards, Rafał Kuć Sematext :: http://sematext.com/ :: Solr - Lucene - Nutch - ElasticSearch > solr 4.1 - trying to create 2 collection with 2 different sets of > configurations. > Anyone accomplished this? > if I run bootstraop twice on different conf dirs, I get both of them in > zookeper, but using collections API to create a collection if > collection.configName=seconfConf doesnt work. > any idea? > thanks. > -- > View this message in context: > http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/solr-4-1-trying-to-create-2-collection-with-2-different-sets-of-configurations-tp4043609.html > Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
