Solr version: 4.2.1 I'm creating a collection via Java using this function call:
String collection = "profile-2"; CoreAdminRequest.Create createRequest = new CoreAdminRequest.Create(); createRequest.setCoreName(collection); createRequest.setCollection(collection); createRequest.setInstanceDir(collection); createRequest.setNumShards(1); createRequest.process(server); It is timing out with this exception (from the solr.out logs): SEVERE: org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Error CREATEing SolrCore 'profile-2': Could not get shard_id for core: profile-2 coreNodeName:192.168.1.152:8983_solr_profile-2 at org.apache.solr.handler.admin.CoreAdminHandler.handleCreateAction(CoreAdminHandler.java:483) at org.apache.solr.handler.admin.CoreAdminHandler.handleRequestBody(CoreAdminHandler.java:140) at org.apache.solr.handler.RequestHandlerBase.handleRequest(RequestHandlerBase.java:135) at org.apache.solr.servlet.SolrDispatchFilter.handleAdminRequest(SolrDispatchFilter.java:591) at org.apache.solr.servlet.SolrDispatchFilter.doFilter(SolrDispatchFilter.java:192) at org.apache.solr.servlet.SolrDispatchFilter.doFilter(SolrDispatchFilter.java:141) ... Caused by: org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Could not get shard_id for core: profile-2 coreNodeName:192.168.1.152:8983_solr_profile-2 at org.apache.solr.cloud.ZkController.doGetShardIdProcess(ZkController.java:1221) at org.apache.solr.cloud.ZkController.preRegister(ZkController.java:1290) at org.apache.solr.core.CoreContainer.registerCore(CoreContainer.java:861) In a "development" environment the zookeeper/solr instances are running with elevated permissions and this function worked without error. In a "test" environment (which matches the "production" environment) the permissions are more restricted. I made sure the group/owner of the /usr/local/solr directory are set up to be the correct user. Any insight into potential file permissions that I may be overlooking? Thank you, Mark
