It sounds like maybe you have started the Solr in a different way than you are restarting it. E.g. maybe you started it manually (bin/solr start, probably as a root) but are trying to restart it via service script. Who owned the .pid file? I am guessing 'root', while the service script probably runs as a different (lower-permission) user.
The practical effect of that assumption is that your environmental variables were set differently and various things (e.g. logs) may not be where you expect. The solution is to be consistent in using the service to start/restart/stop your Solr. Regards, Alex.
