Hi, I have just set up the Basic Authentication Plugin in Solr 6.4.2 on SolrCloud, and I am trying to modify my SolrJ code so that the code can go through the authentication and do the indexing.
I tried using the following code from the Solr Documentation https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Basic+Authentication+Plugin . SolrRequest req ;//create a new request object req.setBasicAuthCredentials(userName, password); solrClient.request(req); However, the code complains that the req is not initialized. If I initialized it, it will be initialize as null. SolrRequest req = null;//create a new request object req.setBasicAuthCredentials(userName, password); solrClient.request(req); This will caused a null pointer exception. Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException How should we go about putting these codes, so that the error can be prevented? Regards, Edwin
