Hoss Man commented on SOLR-6993:
--------------------------------
FWIW: "Negative Length Value" is only supported since Bash 4.2
http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/syntax/pe#negative_length_value
(when reporting bugs with shell scripts, please, _please_ include the output of
{{/usr/bin/env bash -version}}
> install_solr_service.sh won't install on RHEL / CentOS

> Key: SOLR-6993
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6993
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: scripts and tools
> Affects Versions: 5.0, Trunk
> Environment: RHEL 6.5 / CentOS 6.5
> Reporter: David Anderson
> Assignee: Timothy Potter
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 5.0, Trunk

> There's a bug that will prevent install_solr_service.sh from working on RHEL
> / CentOS 6.5. It works on Ubuntu 14. Appears to be some obscure difference
> in bash expression evaluation behavior.
> line 87 and 89: SOLR_DIR=${SOLR_INSTALL_FILE:0:-4}
> blows up with this error:
> ./install_solr_service.sh: line 87: -4: substring expression < 0
> this results in the archive not being extracted and rest of the script won't
> work.
> I tested a simple change:
> SOLR_DIR=${SOLR_INSTALL_FILE%.tgz}
> and verified it works on both RHEL 6.5 and Ubuntu 14
> Patch is attached. I set this to Major thinking that not being able to
> install on CentOS is worth fixing prior to release.
