Thanks Mark! I will wait for 4.1 then. Actually I pasted both /admin/cores and /admin/collections to highlight that the problem was only with SolrJ and both admin/collections and admin/collections were working as expected.
Sorry for the confusion.

Why did you paste that as the example then :) ? 4.0 has problems using the collections api with the CloudSolrServer. You will be able to do it for 4.1, but for 4.0 you have to use an HttpSolrServer and pick a node to talk to. For 4.0, CloudSolrServer is just good for querying and updating. - Mark On Jan 7, 2013, at 1:20 PM, "Jay Parashar" <jparas...@itscape.com> wrote: > Right Mark, > > I am accessing the Collections API using Solrj.
