[jetty-user] (Jetty 8.0.4 and Solr) Can't call *functional* Solr endpoints

Hi,

I'm having problems accessing Solr from Jetty.

My webapplication is deployed as is Solr - currently still in the same
Jetty instance.

Some preliminaries:
1) Accessing my webapplication works 100%.
2) Accessing Solr works 100%. I can access the Solr admin interface and
execute a search (through an url eg
http://localhost:8080/solr/select?wt=json&indent=true&q=text:sushi&sort=id+desc&start=0&rows=10).
 Accessing the search url works 100% from a Java testcase and when I use it
in my browser.

The problem:
When I try to use THE SAME JAVA CODE now just in my deployed webapplication
in Jetty - it no longer works.

I get the following error:

I think there might be a problem in Jetty as like I said - it works 100%
with exactly the same code if I access it outside of Jetty.  Not sure if
there is security settings I need to set for access from one webapplication
to another - but it doesn't make sense as I'm just hitting a Url...

Any help appreciated.
