Unable to create core [tweets_shard1_replica1] Caused by: XML document structures must start and end within the same entity.

You must verify that the solrconfig.xml has valid XML format and isn't missing entities.

You can use this website to validate the XML : XML Validator

You can also get a fresh copy of the solrconfig file from github if you have modified the original and don't have a backup.
