I do have authorization and authentication setup in security.json: the question is how to pass the login and password into post.jar and/or into solr-5.4.0/bin/post -- it does not seem to like the user:pswd@host:8983/solr/corename/update syntax from SOLR-5960: when I try that, it complains "SimplePostTool: FATAL: Connection error (is Solr running at http://user:pswd@hostname:8983/solr/five4a/update ?): java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused", and nothing shows up in solr.log (although I do set log4j.logger.org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server=DEBUG to check for 401 errors, etc).
FYI, I get a 404 from the link you sited: perhaps I don't have access, or perhaps you meant https://lucidworks.com/blog/2015/08/17/securing-solr-basic-auth-permission-rules (although that doesn't mention post.jar) -----Original Message----- From: esther.quan...@lucidworks.com [mailto:esther.quan...@lucidworks.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 29, 2015 12:54 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: post.jar with security.json Hi Craig, To pass the username and password, you'll want to enable authorization and authentication in security.json as is mentioned in this blog post in step 1 of "Enabling Basic Authentication". https://lucidworks.com/blog/2015/08/17/securing-solr-basic-auth--rules/ Is this what you're looking for?
