We're exploring using Solr as a search/faceting engine, and things went quite well during the research phase. We've expanded it a bit, but have run into something of a problem on the two latest machines we've installed Solr on: Solr is just quietly refusing to write out the core.properties file at all. I'm at a complete loss as to what's going on. If I look in CorePropertiesLocator.java, in method writePropertiesFile(), it appears that it would log something if there was an IO error saving the properties file, but I get nothing in the logs indicating such. There is also nothing in the logs that indicates there was anything especially wrong at all. The core is created, the solrconfig.xml file is found and read, the index directories are created (a different directory to the config) and the core is loaded and can be used just fine. It just seems to quietly skip the core.properties writing. Which kind of messes up the whole auto-discovery thing.
Any ideas? Under what circumstances would that file not be written out? It looks like only IOExceptions can be thrown, so I have to assume that the writePropertiesFile() method isn't even being called, right? We're running Solr 4.6.0, installed via the BitNami install client. Any other information that could be helpful in figuring this one out?
