----------------------------------
Summary: Update Operations via SOLR to Knox Fail
Key: KNOX-1066
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-1066
Project: Apache Knox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Server
Affects Versions: 0.12.0, 0.13.0
Reporter: Rick Kellogg
When using the Java SOLRJ HttpSolrClient, any operation that relies upon a POST
HTTP operation fails authentication when proxied via Knox. This is because the
SOLRJ API only supports traditional challenge/response basic authentication.
For any update style operation the SOLRJ client refuses to retry the operation
as it might lead to duplicate data, etc. If this were a GET operation, it
would retry the operation and include the appropriate authentication header.
Therefore preemptive authentication must be used for updates to succeed.
Unfortunately, the Apache HttpClient construction is hidden from the client in
the form of the HttpSolrClient.Builder class.
