I have configured many tomcat+solrCloud setups but I'm trying now to
research the new solr.properties configuration.
I have a functioning zookeeper to which I manually loaded a
configuration using:
zkcli.sh -cmd upconfig \
-zkhost xx.xx.xx.xx:2181 \
-d /test/conf \
-n test
My solr.xml looks like:
<solr>
<str name="coreRootDirectory">/test/data</str>
<bool name="sharedSchema">true</bool>
<solrcloud>
<str name="host">${host:}</str>
<int name="hostPort">8080</int>
<str name="hostContext">${hostContext:/test}</str>
<int name="zkClientTimeout">${zkClientTimeout:30000}</int>
<str name="zkhost">xx.xx.xx.xx:2181</str>
</solrcloud>
<shardHandlerFactory name="shardHandlerFactory"
class="HttpShardHandlerFactory">
<int name="socketTimeout">${socketTimeout:0}</int>
<int name="connTimeout">${connTimeout:0}</int>
</shardHandlerFactory>
</solr>
... all fine. I start tomcat and I see
> Loading container configuration from /test/solr.xml
[...]
> Looking for core definitions underneath /test/data
> Found 0 core definitions
which is anticipated as I have not created any cores or collections.
Then, trying to create a collection
wget -O- \
'http://xx.xx.xx.xx/test/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=testCollection&numShards=1&replicationFactor=1&maxShardsPerNode=1&collection.config=test&property.dataDir=/test/data/testCollection&property.instanceDir=/test'
I get:
> org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Solr instance is not running in
SolrCloud mode.
Hrmmm, here I am confused. I have a working zookeeper, I have a loaded
configuration, I have an empty data directory (no collections, cores,
core.properties etc) and I have specified the zkHost configuration
parameter in my solr.xml (yes, IP:port is correct)
What exactly am I missing?
thanks for the help.
