Hi

Solr is a standard package in ArchLinux. ("pacman -S solr") . the systemd installation script is included (and it is launching /opt/solr/bin/solr.in.sh)

Instance : sudo -u solr /opt/solr/bin/solr create -c dovecot -> this creates a separate folder with default solrconfig.xml, schema.xml, etc..

I made a symlink of the data folder to a second drive (ext4) much bigger

Same as me.

- If i delete schema.xml but create only managed-schema, the solr refuses to start with a java error "schema.xml missing"

Ok...so we need to do some more digging.

How did you install Solr? (I downloaded a "binary" installation and unpacked it)

How did you create the dovecot instance?  (I've provided explicit instructions for how I did it - did you follow those exactly or something different)?

How are you starting Solr?  (I use the provided "solr/bin/solr start" command, wrapped inside a systemd service).
