I found a rather severe error... my fault, part of SOLR-249
I noticed that: http://localhost:8983/solr/update?stream.url=http://www.ask.com does not give me an error (it should!)In replacing the new SolrException( ), 2 files do not have the preceding "throw" -- it makes exceptions, but does not throw them!!!
I will fix this on trunk and, http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/solr/branches/branch-1.2/ sorry ryan
