I guess your query string is too large (more than the limit for an HTTP GET
request). Use a http post request instead of get and it should work fine.

To do that, create your own HttpClient with method as POST and pass that
client to CommonsHttpSolrServer constructor.

Or if you must for some reason, you can raise the limit with the following
system property:

org.mortbay.http.HttpRequest.maxFormContentSize=500000

You could also do it in the servlet context, and I think there is even
a way in jetty.xml.
