Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-1564:
-----------------------------------------
[~michael-o], we have zero control over whether/when this gets addressed in
SolrJ. Previous interactions with the SolrJ developers do not make me feel
like a fix would likely be a prompt one. But I suggest that [~erlendfg] at
least take the step of opening a ticket.
We can afford to wait until the next MCF release is imminent before taking any
action, but if there's no resolution in sight then, I think we should implement
the workaround for the time being.
> Support preemptive authentication to Solr connector

> Key: CONNECTORS-1564

> Project: ManifoldCF
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Lucene/SOLR connector

> We should post preemptively in case the Solr server requires basic
> authentication. This will make the communication between ManifoldCF and Solr
> much more effective instead of the following:
> * Send a HTTP POST request to Solr
> * Solr sends a 401 response
> * Send the same request, but with a "{{Authorization: Basic}}" header
> With preemptive authentication, we can send the header in the first request.
