Hi all, I am facing issue with BasicAuth and blockUnknown.
The blockUnknown in Solr authentication settings also blocks internal solr nodes communication and it is failing on fetching public keys of node in a cluster. I am getting following errors in the log: 2016-06-20 08:43:53.968 ERROR (qtp762152757-19) [ ] o.a.s.s.PKIAuthenticationPlugin Exception trying to get public key from : http://192.168.100.47:8983/solr

o.a.s.s.PKIAuthenticationPlugin Failed to decrypt header, trying after refreshing the key I found that the issue is already logged as SOLR-9188, but no plans for fixing it yet. My question is if there is any wokaround that would allow me to use Basic Auth and avoide this errors? Thanks Ales
