The implicit handlers /update and /update/json/docs
treat the same payload differently /update requires the payload in [ ] where as /update/json/docs does not. {field_1:data, field_2:data} throws the error "unknown command 'field_1'..." but the same payload to /update/json/docs works fine. I have my own requestHandler that uses solr.UpdateRequestHandler How can my handler to accept the payload without [ ] around the json? I am using the script update processor but the error is thrown before I can process the payload. Thank you so much for any insight! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "This message is intended for the use of the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is confidential or privileged, the disclosure of which is governed by applicable law.
