Walter is right about the error message. This indicates that Solr is returning an error response that's in HTML or XML format rather than the expected javabin. The server log should actually contain more information about what actually went wrong. This is probably happening because the request is too big. In my indexing code, I send deleteByQuery requests in batches of 1000 for this very reason. If that date range is the same for all of the deletes in a batch, you could make the request considerably smaller by using the following format: DATE:["2013-11-29T00:00:00Z"+TO+"2013-11-29T23:59:59Z"] AND Account:(123 OR 345 OR 569 OR 789 OR .... 30000th-value) The other option is to increase the max form size of your servlet container. In 4.1 or later, this is actually controlled by Solr directly, not the container config, with the formdataUploadLimitInKB attribute on the requestParsers tag in solrconfig.xml. The default is 2048, or 2MB. With 30000 clauses like you have described, the request will be a little bit more than 2MB. There is a bug in the early Jetty 8 versions (that included with Solr 4.0) that prevented the form size from being set in the jetty config: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=397130 The Jetty 6 that is included with Solr 1.x and 3.x can be properly configured.
