Background: all testing done on a Win7 platform. This is my first migration from a single Solr server to a simple cloud. Everything is configured exactly as specified in the wiki.
I created a simple 3-node client, all localhost with different server URLs, and a lone external zookeeper. The online admin shows they are all up. I then start an agent which sends in documents to "bootstrap" the index. That's when issues start. A clip from the log shows this: First, I create a SolrDocument with this JSON data: DEBUG 2013-10-24 18:00:09,143 [main] - SolrCloudClient.mapToDocument- {"locator":"EssayNodeType","smallIcon":"\/images\/cogwheel.png","subOf":["NodeType"],"details":["The TopicQuests NodeTypes typology essay type."],"isPrivate":"false","creatorId":"SystemUser","label":["Essay Type"],"largeIcon":"\/images\/cogwheel_sm.png","lastEditDate":Thu Oct 24 18:00:09 PDT 2013,"createdDate":Thu Oct 24 18:00:09 PDT 2013} Then, send it in from SolrJ which has a CloudSolrServer initialized with localhost:2181 and an instance of LBHttpSolrServer initialized with http://localhost:8983/solr/ That trace follows INFO 2013-10-24 18:00:09,145 [main] - Initiating client connection, connectString=localhost:2181 sessionTimeout=10000 watcher=org.apache.solr.common.cloud.ConnectionManager@8888e6c INFO 2013-10-24 18:00:09,148 [main] - Waiting for client to connect to ZooKeeper INFO 2013-10-24 18:00:09,150 [main-SendThread(0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1:2181)] - Opening socket connection to server 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1/0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1:2181.
