The real main differecne seems coming from "diffconfig.xml"

When I put yours, Solr delete (!) schema.xml and create a "manage-schema" and starts complaining about useless types (tdates, booleans, etc..) that are not needed for Mail fileds

When I put mine (from standard distribution of Arch), it keeps things as they are (yeah !), does not complains about those useless types and startup properly.

I attach my diffconfig

But these are the configurations that one should adjust as per his/her own use.

The main problem is : After some time of indexing from Dovecot, Dovecot returns errors (invalid SID, etc...) and Solr return "out of range indexes" errors

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

Also :

- Java is 10.0.2

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).
