can not create core in solr [ERROR: Solr requires authentication]

when I create solr core:

bin/solr create -c my_core

I get the following error:

ERROR: Solr requires authentication for http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/info/system. Please supply valid credentials. HTTP code=401

even I had logged in into solr admin panel. is there any way to provide my credential info with the create command?

in my case in solr 6.5 I did these steps: 1: disable security option in solr, at the end of lines should be sudo nano /opt/solr/server/etc/webdefault.xml

<!-- <security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
      <web-resource-name>Solr authenticated application</web-resource-name>
      <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
    </web-resource-collection>
    <auth-constraint>
      <role-name>admin-role</role-name>
    </auth-constraint>
  </security-constraint>

  <login-config>
    <auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
    <realm-name>Test Realm</realm-name>
  </login-config> -->

aftter restart solr

sudo service solr restart

Even if it is an old question. Just for reference in case somebody like me looks for the answer in the future.

In my case of Solr 6 setting the following two environment variables did the job:

export SOLR_AUTH_TYPE='basic'
export SOLR_AUTHENTICATION_OPTS='-Dbasicauth=username:password'

Now I was able to issue 'bin/solr create ...' etc. from the same console session

as work around not a solution, I had to delete the security,json file, restart solr, then create the core finally put back the security.json file.
