Every time after a day or two or working well, ApacheSolr simply quits for me. I then get this error message in Drupal dblog:

apachesolr - "0" Status: Request failed: Connection refused

I checked the server processes to see that "java -jar start.jar" was still running. It was still running. Could a firewall decide to "block" connection every time, after a few days or so?

Server overload othersockbuf, probably caused by too many CRON jobs at the same time, and database inefficiencies. Changed my.cnf. Unrelated.

You may need to start solr by ./start drupal-solar . This error means solr has stopped working.
