I may have missed this but, how do you specify a default core when using

for the solr.xml? When I view the status of my Solr core setup (
http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=STATUS) I see a
isDefaultCore speficiation
but, i'm not sure where it can from and and where it's located so that it
may be changed. <bool name="isDefaultCore">false</bool>
Also when viewing the status I see:
<str name="defaultCoreName">collection1</str>
I thought that defaultCoreName was not supported when using the new-style
for solr.xml? Also, not sure why it picked up the value "collection1" as I
did not specify a default core.
As far as I am aware, you can't specify the default core with the new
solr.xml format. The default is hard-coded to what's in the example -
collection1. If you happen to have a core named collection1, it will
work without a core name in the URL.
There is a *LOT* of documentation out there that needs udpdating. This
includes Solr documentation itself as well as third-party documentation,
howtos, blog posts, etc.
I would prefer if everyone included the core name in every request, but
I suspect that inertia is probably going to dictate that we allow people
to use the defaultCoreName option again. I don't like it, but that may
be the reality of the situation.
Thanks,
