If it's HttpSolrServer (HttpSolrClient in newer versions), chances are good that it will work. The basic http API in Solr does not change quickly. If you run into problems, provide detailed information here or on the IRC channel and we'll try to help you work through them. I have done quite a bit of version mismatching with the http client. Currently I have code with the 6.x client that connects to 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x servers. I have also used older clients with newer servers and had no issues. If it's CloudSolrServer (CloudSolrClient in newer versions), I wouldn't even try to make it work with that wide a version discrepancy. SolrCloud has evolved so rapidly over the last couple of years that connecting different client and server versions may not work at all. For best compatibility, they should be identical versions. If they aren't, SolrJ should be newer than Solr, be from the same major version, and not be offset by more than one or two minor releases. Thanks, Shawn
