Greetings I'm in the process of setting up a SolrCloud cluster with 3 Zookeeper and 3 Solr nodes on FreeBSD and wish to enable SSL between the Solr nodes. Before enabling SSL, everything worked as expected and I followed the instructions described in the Solr 8.6 docs <https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/8_6/enabling-ssl.html>. But after enabling SSL, the solr command line utility stopped working for various tasks.
For example: $ /usr/local/solr/bin/solr status Found 1 Solr nodes: Solr process 974 from /var/db/solr/solr-8983.pid not found. $ /usr/local/solr/bin/solr create_collection -c test Failed to determine the port of a local Solr instance, cannot create test! Also the following line appears in the logfile even though SSL is enabled: 2020-08-24 15:29:52.612 WARN (main) [ ] o.a.s.c.CoreContainer Solr authentication is enabled, but SSL is off. Consider enabling SSL to protect user credentials and data with encryption. Apart from these oddities, the cluster is working fine and dandy. The dashboard is available via HTTPS and the nodes can communicate via SSL. Does anyone have any clue what's causing this? Any help would be appreciated. Regards Patrik
