Go to solr core admin folder.
In mac if you installed it from homebrew, it is /opt/homebrew/var/lib/solr
Now delete the core, that you tried to create and recreate from terminal
solr delete -c my_solr
solr create_core -c y_solr
Hope it helps

4 Years on but this was never answered.
The example from the documentation worked for me with version 8.6:
http://:localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=core-name&instanceDir=path/to/dir&config=solrconfig.xml&dataDir=data

As it is mentionned in the wiki that you referenced in the link , instanceDir parameter in the http request is a required parameter. config, schema & dataDir parameters are optional. (Default is to look for solrconfig.xml/schema.xml inside instanceDir. Default place to look for dataDir depends on solrconfig.xml.) Example of Create Request
http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=coreX&instanceDir=path_to_instance_directory&
config=config_file_name.xml&schema=schema_file_name.xml&dataDir=data
