Description

Hi all,

After several attempts I am unable to get CDCR working for a solr core with existing documents.

My first attempt failed due to incompatibility with the tlog file names,

Caused by: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1967)
at org.apache.solr.update.CdcrUpdateLog.getLastLogId(CdcrUpdateLog.java:154)
at org.apache.solr.update.UpdateLog.init(UpdateLog.java:282)
at org.apache.solr.update.CdcrUpdateLog.init(CdcrUpdateLog.java:77)
at org.apache.solr.update.UpdateHandler.<init>(UpdateHandler.java:137)

This is going from having an update handler of
<updateLog>
<str name="dir">/somedir/</str>
</updateLog>

to
<updateLog class="solr.CdcrUpdateLog">
<str name="dir">/somedir</str>
</updateLog>

I believe this is due to the file patterns differing for the default update log class and the CdcrUpdateLog class.

I then continued to follow https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=62687462#CrossDataCenterReplication(CDCR)-FirstTime

which does not describe having the CdcrUpdateLog class, to which solr will now start erroring with

I may have completely missunderstood but please advise?

Thanks

Mike
