    echo 'Solr service not responding.';
    exit;
  }
  //
  //
  // Create two documents to represent two auto parts.
  // In practice, documents would likely be assembled from a 
  //   database query. 
  //
  $parts = array(
    'spark_plug' => array(
 
      'name' => 'Spark plug',

i have solved it , this was on the commit() function because solr 4.0 and up versions have deprecated the waitflush parameter in the xml tag , we need to remove this from the optimize() function in the service.php file , do note that we donot need to remove the function parameter but the actual xml tag attribute that is mentioned inthe $rawpost variable
