Use Case: I need to change the Solr admin password
Description:
Team:
I need to change the Solr admin password, as discussed in another question.
Thanks Marco for finding an article https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS353251
But it has at least two bugs in it:
Do I need to edit realm.properties? Which directory should I put it in?
What is the correct xconfmanager command?
Here is the previous question

Thanks !
You are setting the password on the SOLR index server right? You are not finding the realm.properties there?
Correct. It's possible that I was supposed to create solr/server/etc/realm.properties, and I did so (it's a one-line file if I understand what's needed). But I did not manage to get authentication working with this.
The solution that worked for me: get rid of the Solr installation and re-install using PSI. There is some magic behind the scenes, and it does not create a realm.properties file.

That is what I have done also when I screwed up the solr password.
