Well, be patient. The solar eclipse only has a 3.33% chance to replace a regular day. So in average (Although it might be less or more than that), you'd have to wait for 30 Terraria days in those requirements for a solar eclipse to spawn. Sometimes, it could be 100 days if very unlucky, but if lucky, you might get it the next in-game day. So again, be patient, and start doing something else rather than waiting for the solar eclipse. (Just have a magic mirror with you in case a solar eclipse appears when you're underground.)
