In the end I created a configmap in Kubernetes and mounted it as a volume to override the configuration. Howevere, I would like to know anyways how to perform this operation because it can be useful when starting Alfresco using Docker Compose.

Hi,

I want to configure alfresco.cron SOLR property in my docker-compose.yml file within SOLR_OPTS. And I try to do that, like this:

ng-office-ass:
  image: alfresco/alfresco-search-services:2.0.1
  environment:
    SOLR_ALFRESCO_HOST: ng-office-acs
    SOLR_ALFRESCO_PORT: 8080
    SOLR_SOLR_HOST: ng-office-ass
    SOLR_SOLR_PORT: 8983
    SOLR_CREATE_ALFRESCO_DEFAULTS: alfresco,archive
    ALFRESCO_SECURE_COMMS: none
    SOLR_OPTS: "$SOLR_OPTS -Dalfresco.cron=0/2 * * * * ? *"
  ports:
    - "8983:8983"
  volumes:
    - ng-office-ass-volume:/opt/alfresco-search-services/contentstore
    - ng-office-ass-volume:/opt/alfresco-search-services/data
  depends_on:
    - ng-office-acs

But the result is the next error:

ng-office-ass_1 | Error: Could not find or load main class contentstore
ng-office-ass_1 | Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: contentstore

A also tried to add this property as a new "JAVA_OPTS" entry. I didn't get any error message, but after I checked solrcore. properties file in my ass container I can see that alfresco.cron property is the same.

I read all the documentation, and I cannot found how to configure solr properties(https://docs.alfresco.com/search-services/latest/config/properties/#solr-core-configuration-properti...) in the docker-comose.yml file.

You need to extend default Search Services Docker Image in order to add/modify the properties. Java Envs are not supported.

This is a sample on how to do that:
