Please notice that before creating a core you should make a directory with the same name into :

C:\...\solr-8.3.11\server\solr

Then copy conf folder from examples or the default folder.

I had a same problem in windows I copied conf folder from examples:

C:\...\solr-8.3.1\example\files

to here :

C:\...\solr-8.3.1\server\solr\new_core

And my problem solved.

You can also copy conf folder from its default folder:

C:\...\solr-8.3.11\server\solr\configsets_default

in here new_core is the name of my new core which I was adding.

so maybe in Ubuntu coping this folder solve your problem.

next solution : after running solr with command prompt or the terminal, to create a core use this command :

solr create -c new_core_name
