The problem here seems to be that SolrJ can't parse the XML response comming back from your solr server ... can you check your servlet container logs and let us know:
1) exactly what URL it says SolrJ is hitting. 2) the response you get when you hit that same url in your browser? : Caused by: javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException: ParseError at : [row,col]:[3,1440] : Message: requires 'name' attribute: lst : at : org.apache.solr.client.solrj.impl.XMLResponseParser.readNamedList(XMLResponseParser.java:284) -Hoss
