Any ideas how I can fix this error ?

As a workaround please try this:

# rm -rf /var/lib/ambari-server/resources/common-services_xx_xx_xx_xx.old/SOLR 
# rm -rf /var/lib/ambari-server/resources/common-services/SOLR 
# ambari-server upgrade

.

NOTE: Instead of Deleting the mentioned directories completely ... you can also take a backup of those directory for safety.

.

Now I get this error
