Unauthorized dataimport-scheduler calls

Question

I'm trying to setup an dataimport-scheduler for solr, everything's working and the deltaimport url is called every 30 minutes, the only problem is I'm using jetty and activated authentication in jetty.xml so the dataimport_scheduler gets:

<index update process> Response message                        Unauthorized

(saw in log file), How can I solve this?

Answer 1

The DataImportScheduler needs to have access to your solr/dataimport url via http. The error you see in the log file is because of the authentication you added. As far as I know the DataImportScheduler doesn't support authentication out of the box, but it should be easy to add it to the code.

Unfortunately it doesn't use http-client, which would have made things a bit easier and flexible I guess, but you can have a look at this answer to find out how to add http basic authentication to http calls made through the HttpURLConnection class.
