Description

The examples do not respect SOLR_HOME or SOLR_LOGS_DIR env, but always try to write index and logs to SOLR_HOME/../logs. Problem is when Solr is installed using the installer script, then /opt/solr is not supposed to be writable, and starting the examples fail.

Reproduce

sudo install_solr_service.sh solr-6.4.0.tgz
sudo su solr
export SOLR_INCLUDE="/etc/default/solr.in.sh"
/opt/solr/bin/solr -e dih

Starting up Solr on port 8983 using command:
/opt/solr/bin/solr start -p 8983 -s "/opt/solr/example/example-DIH/solr"
