Getting the same problem. We both must be playing with Solr 3.6

I had to download the HttpClient jars from the HttpComponents project. They didn’t seem to be included with Solr 3.6

http://hc.apache.org/downloads.cgi

3.6 Has a new version of the client that uses the new HttpComponents (4.0) stuff, not the old HttpClient (3.1) stuff. The old 3.1 jar is there, but not the new one.

Once I copied the jars over, it worked.

I copied the following (not all may be needed).

httpclient-4.1.3.jar
httpclient-cache-4.1.3.jar
httpcore-4.1.4.jar
httpmime-4.1.3.jar

works for me, now.
