------------------------------------
Thanks Alexandre for bringing this up and +1 Tim!
> Dead end UX when following README
> ---------------------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-6778
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6778
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: documentation
> Affects Versions: 5.0
> Reporter: Alexandre Rafalovitch
> Priority: Blocker
> Labels: documentation, examples, usability
> Fix For: 5.0
>
> Attachments: SOLR-6778.patch
>
>
> After 'downloading' (building) Solr 5 distribution, the README says:
> {quote}
> To start Solr for the first time after installation, simply do:
> bin/solr start -f
> {quote}
> That will bring Solr server up, but there is no longer a *collection1*, so we
> get *no cores* message, clicking on which brings up an "Add new core"
> dialogue.
> Which - of course - does not actually allow us to create a new core but will
> just complain bitterly that one does not exist on the file system. And the
> server will throw a scary stack exception.
> We have a catch-22 here. So, either the README needs to go into *run an
> example* sequence or ???
