Also :
- Java is 10.0.2
- If i delete schema.xml but create only managed-schema, the solr
refuses to start with a java error "schema.xml missing"

There is a *huge* difference between a functional Solr setup & squat - and if I'm able to get it working we should be able to get you there as well.

That said, I suggest you consider an alternative viewpoint. Frequently being misunderstood myself I apologize in advance if I'm reading you wrong - but it appears your view towards the situation is there is a bug in Dovecot related to this problem. That may well be - but I generally approach these matters from the assumption that *I* made the error in configuration and go from there. I'm not an official rep for any product nor claim to be any form of expert in these matters - but I do have a working setup and I'd like to help you if I can. If you're willing to - take a deep breath and let's try starting over.

Also comment out the Dovecot directives for "fts_decoder" and "fts_enforced" so you're closer to my setup. Try running again and then post back - I'll do what I can. Based on the fact that Dovecot+Solr 7.5+my schema is working for me leads me to believe we can get it working for you as well.

The method I detailed previously for setting up a config helps automate creating new Solr instances - but as I stated you can either setup a Solr template and then create the instance from that or create an instance using the default template and then adjust it.
