Alfresco reindex not working?

sistemi · ‎8 May 2020

Hi everybody, I am trying to perform a full reindex in my Alfresco community 6.1.2 - 201901 with Alfresco search services 1.3.0.1 following these steps : https://docs.alfresco.com/search-enterprise/tasks/solr-reindex.html . So I created a script that sends these commands:

export SOLR_BASE=/opt/solr
export SOLR_HOME=$SOLR_BASE/solrhome

/opt/Solr.sh stop

rm -rf $SOLR_HOME/archive/index
rm -rf $SOLR_HOME/alfresco/index
rm -rf $SOLR_HOME/alfrescoModels
rm -rf $SOLR_BASE/contentstore

/opt/Solr.sh start

/opt/Solr.sh is a script that starts Solr with this command: /opt/solr/solr/bin/solr start -force -m 2G

Unfortunately in solr.log I do not see a line containing:

WARNING: [archive] Solr index directory '<SOLR_HOME>/solrhome/archive/index' doesn't exist. Creating new index...

like https://docs.alfresco.com/search-enterprise/tasks/solr-reindex.html says, I see only these lines:

Is it ok? Or am I missing something? There are also many warnings that I do not fully understand...do you have any clue?

You need to start SOLR adding the option to re-create the cores.

Something similar to the following line:

/opt/solr/solr/bin/solr start -force -m 2G -a "-Dcreate.alfresco.defaults=alfresco,archive"

Hi, I added the parameter you suggested to the start script, but reindex is still not working. After deleting Solr data folders and restarting Solr I get only these two new lines (the ones in bold):

It looks like that some data are already existing in Solr, do I have to delete more folders than the 4 that I reported in the first post?

Sorry, I did not reply to your answer but I added another answer...please take a look at my previous post, adding those parameters to

/opt/solr/solr/bin/solr start

did not change indexing behaviour.
