Unfortunately, I can't avoid symlinks for the Solr data directory. Is there anything else I can try?
Set Solr's data directories directly into the real path, don't use a path with a symlink.
Since Solr 9.1, Solr uses a Java security manager that limits what rights it has outside of its own directories.
We found problems with this for installs using the service installer, because the install dir (usually /opt/solr) is a symlink to solr-X.Y.Z. In 9.2.0, that problem is mostly fixed.
Unfortunately, there is still a problem with the security manager if symlinks are involved for other directories, like data and logs. So for right now you can't use symlinks for those directories with an out-of-the-box setup.
Fixing the remaining problem is going to require some intricate surgery on the bin/solr script. I've begun work on it, but it might take me a little while.
Just saw that you edited the security policy directly, which is another way to fix it.
Thanks, Shawn
