General rule of debuggin client+server apps: if nothing changed on the 
client, but now it's broken, then something probably changed on the 
server.

have you contacted your hosting company to see if they changed something 
on their side?

CommonsHttpSolrServer should be sending a propert Content-Length header 
on updates -- you can verify that using something like tcpdump or by 
configuring your CommonsHttpSolrServer to use a proxy like wireshark.
