Martin Häcker commented on SOLR-15967:
--------------------------------------
I have to say I am saddened to hear that the solr project has not managed to
make minor versions forward compatible and restrict breaking changes to only
the major versions. I would have expected that automated updates can be applied
at least until he next major version.
That being said: Is there no way to do a safe update? I have lots of small
servers that I'd like to deploy solr as a full text index to and tending all of
them for every update simply does not do. (I don't mind a downtime of a few
minutes during the update).

> Hi there,
> it's surprisingly hard to install Solr in a way where I can guarantee to
> automatically get updates, especially security updates in a reliable manner,
> as well as get a documented way to start / run Solr on my distro of choice.
> What I am really looking for is an official rpm repository (and probably a
> deb repo too) that I can add to my package manager and then install a package
> that will give me all the updates I want, as well as starts the database with
> a systemd file that is known good.
> I in particular am looking for a centos 7 repository.
> I think, that this would make installation of Solr so much easier.
> What do you say?
