Description

Hello Team,

I have upgraded the SOLR instance from 7.x to 8.1.1 and my READ role users are not able to search results. 

Upon trying to access below URL, getting the error:

http://localhost:8984/solr/testcore/select?q=%3A

HTTP ERROR 403

Problem accessing /solr/xcelerate/select. Reason:

Unauthorized request, Response code: 403

 

Below is the content of security.json file.
