hi All,

I solved the problem, i setup a solr server and had to change the port n8umber to 8983 and the admin panel appeared.

Cheers,
Akshar

You can receive this error if you are using http basic authorization to limit access to Solr. In that case, set the Server URL to include the username and password, using the following pattern: http://username:password@example.com:8080/solr. So, if your username is user, your password is 12345, your URL is mysite.com, and your Solr is using port 8080, do http://user:12345@mysite.com:8080/solr.
