Hi Jason,
Apologies for the late reply. My laptop was broken and I got it today from
service centre.
I am still having issues with solr-user able to view the Collections list
as follow.
Testing permissions for user [solr]
Request [/admin/collections?action=LIST] returned status [200]
Request [/collection1/select?q=*:*] returned status [200]
Request [/collection2/select?q=*:*] returned status [200]
Request [/collection3/select?q=*:*] returned status [200]
Testing permissions for user [solr-user]
Request [/admin/collections?action=LIST] returned status [200]
Request [/collection1/select?q=*:*] returned status [200]
Request [/collection2/select?q=*:*] returned status [200]
Request [/collection3/select?q=*:*] returned status [403]
I am still wondering wher I am going wrong.
Thanks,
Salmaan
