Hi list,

Was attempting to check out the VelocityResponseWriter before I progress with 
customising it for my own usage, I seem to have opened a can of worms when 
posting documents to Solr. Using simple post command I get the following output.

lewis@lewis-01:~/Downloads/apache-solr-1.4.1/example/exampledocs$ java -jar 
post.jar *.pdf
SimplePostTool: version 1.2
SimplePostTool: WARNING: Make sure your XML documents are encoded in UTF-8, 
other encodings are not currently supported
SimplePostTool: POSTing files to http://localhost:8983/solr/update..
SimplePostTool: POSTing file 
technical_handbook_2010_domestic_section_0_general.pdf
SimplePostTool: FATAL: Solr returned an error: 
Unexpected_character__code_37_in_prolog_expected___at_rowcol_unknownsource_11

In some projects (E.g. Nutch) I am aware that the distribution does not come 
with alll jar's and these are required to be downloaded separately, I know this 
is not the case with Solr though. I have also successfully committed a host of 
.pdf to Solr recently so I know that this is working fine. Checking my Solr 
logs nothing seems to be out of place!

Has anyone seen anything similar?

Thanks Lewis
