[Charles Duffy < >]

I've seen issues similar to this due to memory corruption, fixed by moving to a newer Ruby runtime.

Hello everybody,
I tried to google this but i was not able to find the solution.
We have chef server 0.9.12 and corresponding clients.
I found this problem when I wanted to search nodes by role. But it did not
work. The problem is just with new nodes. Older nodes can be updated without
problems and search on older roles also works.

Solr-indexer tries to index data but receives error from SOLR (conection reset
by peer)

And in SOLR log we can see this. sometimes it is unexpected character '5'
