Could you also provide us with the error you were getting?

Thanks for your time!

Hi all,
I recently created a Solr index to track some news articles that I follow and I've noticed that I occasionally receive 500 errors when posting an 
update. It doesn't happen every time and I can't seem to reproduce the
error. I should mention that I have another Solr index setup under the same instance (configured via solr.xml) and I do not seem to be having the same 
issue. Also, I can query the index without issue.
Does anyone know if this is an error with the Tomcat server I have set up, or an issue with Solr itself? Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? 

If it's any help, here's a dump of the xml that caused an error:
