Hello, I am very new to Solr, and I'm excited to get it up and running on amazon ec2 for some prototypical testing. So, I've installed solr (and java) on one ec2 instance, and I've installed zookeeper on another. After starting the zookeeper server on the default port of 2181, I run this on the solr instance: "opt/solr/bin/solr start -c -z "<ec2addresshiddenbyme>. us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/solr"", which seems to complete successfully:
Archiving 1 old GC log files to /opt/solr/server/logs/archived Archiving 1 console log files to /opt/solr/server/logs/archived Rotating solr logs, keeping a max of 9 generations Waiting up to 180 seconds to see Solr running on port 8983 [|] Started Solr server on port 8983 (pid=13038). Happy searching! But then when I run "/opt/solr/bin/solr status", I get this output: Found 1 Solr nodes: Solr process 13038 running on port 8983 ERROR: Failed to get system information from http://localhost:8983/solr due to: org.apache.http.client.ClientProtocolException: Expected JSON response from server but received: <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8"/> <title>Error 500 Server Error</title> </head> <body><h2>HTTP ERROR 500</h2> <p>Problem accessing /solr/admin/info/system.

I don't quite understand what things could be causing this problem, so I'm really at a loss at the moment. If you need any additional information, I'd be glad to provide it. Thanks for reading!
