This plugin uses basic auth to secure solr.

At the moment the basic auth username and password is set to:

username: solr
password: SolrRocks

On production systems, you should change the default username and password. To do this, you will need to update the security.json file in the root directory.

Change

"credentials":{"solr":"IV0EHq1OnNrj6gvRCwvFwTrZ1+z1oBbnQdiVC3otuq0= Ndd7LKvVBAaZIF0QAVi1ekCfAJXr1GGfLtRUXhgrF8c="},   

to

"credentials":{"<my_username>":"<my_password_hash>"},  

And copy the new security file to /server/solr

Or alternatively, you can do this on the command line:

Add new user:

curl --user solr:SolrRocks http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/authentication -H 'Content-type:application/json' -d '{"set-user": {"":""}}'

Remove default user:

curl --user solr:SolrRocks http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/authentication -H 'Content-type:application/json' -d '{"delete-user": ["solr"]}'

You should also update the solr.in.sh file (/bin/solr.in.sh)

Add the following variables to the bottom of the file:

SOLR_AUTH_TYPE="basic"
SOLR_AUTHENTICATION_OPTS="-Dbasicauth=:"

Once you have updated security.json and solr.in.sh you should restart your solr server:
