Unable to delete solr indexes

samant_thakur — Sun, 10 Jun 2018 04:08:47 GMT

Hi There,

I am getting below error on my solr web UI on HDP 2.6.0 Cluster.

org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Exception writing document id fb076ca8-9261-4715-990f-f563da0a02ed-1857434654 to the index; possible analysis error: number of documents in the index cannot exceed 2147483519
	at org.apache.solr.update.DirectUpdateHandler2.addDoc(DirectUpdateHandler2.java:173)
	at org.apache.solr.update.processor.RunUpdateProcessor.processAdd(RunUpdateProcessorFactory

so I tried to delete all solr indexes using below command

curl http://LocalHost:8886/solr/update?commit=true -H "Content-type: text/xml"--data-binary '<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>'

but unable to delete the indexes and getting below error

url: (6) Couldn't resolve host '<delete><query>*:*<

Is there any alternative way to delete solr indexes completely or can we define the TTL to delete the solr indexes/data at a regular interval basis?

Please assist.

Thanks!

Try without keeping space between Content-type: text/xml

curl http://localhost:8886/solr/update?commit=true -H "Content-type:text/xml"--data-binary '<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>'
