Shawn, Perhaps i misunderstood the documentation but when you included the add clause does it not create an entirely new document?

Without it, Solr will not know that you are sending JSON. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Uploading+Data+with+Index+Handlers#UploadingDatawithIndexHandlers-JSONFormattedIndexUpdates There are some alternate update URL paths that assume JSON. See below. Because your JSON does not include the "add" command, but instead has a bare document, you *might* need to send to /update/json/docs instead of just /update or even /update/json. Or you can restructure it to use the "add" command. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Uploading+Data+with+Index+Handlers#UploadingDatawithIndexHandlers-JSONUpdateConveniencePaths Thanks, Shawn
