SolrCore Initialization Failures

[#1]

solr.jpgOnce I shut down the sandbox and start it again, I am able to start NiFi service smoothly but when I try to start solr service I get an error saying "solr cannot be started again, as it's already running". Also, I can't reach the default homepage.

The only way I can get the solr service up is by "restarting it". But as I restart it and head to default homepage: http://sandbox.hortonworks.com:8983/solr/ it hits me with the error again. Please have a look at the attachment.

On Ambari, click on Solr > Configs and under advanced solr-hdfs, set the "Delete write.lock files on HDFS" property to true. Restart Solr.
