Possibly an obvious thing you've already looked at, but does the user that Tomcat's running under have execute permissions on all the directories leading up to your solr directory? It might be being prevented from traversing the directory tree.
Also I would verify there's no ACLs on anything in that directory tree. Those can get bizarre if you're like me and don't understand them. :) I'm assuming you're using a UNIX variant here...
