Instead of status code in XML, : you should look at HTTP status code e.g. 200 OK, 404 Not Found, etc.
To elaborate: the "status" value included in the response was historically (in the way, way early days of Solr) similar to a process result code in unix: 0 ment everything was fine, and non-zero ment bad things had happened. we later standardized on using http status codes -- both in the HTTP header responses, but also in the "responseHeader" of the xml/json/whatever response body - but for backcompat with existing clients "0" is still used in the body (instead of "200") when teh result is a "success"... $ curl -sS -D - "http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=foo&df=text"; HTTP/1.1 200 OK ... <lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int>... hossman@frisbee:~/lucene/dev/solr$ curl -sS -D - "http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=foo&df=does_not_exist"; HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request ... <lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">400</int>... -Hoss http://www.lucidworks.com/
