Solr 7.0 upgrade - Error opening new searcher

tony_bolt — Thu, 05 Oct 2017 10:42:37 GMT

I upgraded an existing Solr 6.6.0 instance to V7.0.0. On startup, only empty cores have come up cleanly. All cores that contain any data get an error "Error Opening New Searcher"

All these cores store their indexes on HDFS. This instance is a single node Solr cloud using external zookeeper. The HDFS platform is HDP 2.4.2

Just for starters, here is an example from solr.log for one such core:

Any ideas?

This is very likely https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11406, which has the net effect that Solr 7.0 cannot read indexes from any Solr 6.x version.

To resolve this, a new release of Solr is in the works (7.0.1). The vote for this release is just nearing the end, so I would expect it to be released in the next 1-3 days.

Thanks @Cassandra Targett. I've reverted to 6.6.0 and will await V7.0.1

Regards
