I have a Solr slave that is running in Tomcat. I added a core, so I changed solr.xml. To reload it I decided to simply restart Tomcat using the Windows Services managament console.
After restarting Tomcat I keep getting the following exception:
org.apache.lucene.store.LockObtainFailedException: Index locked for write for core
I decided to temporarily change the solrconfig.xml for each core to add:
<unlockOnStartup>true</unlockOnStartup>
But no luck. Locking is set to native, so I can't go and remove lock files.
- How do I get Solr up and running again?
- How should I restart Solr to prevent this from happening?
