This question is more appropriate for the solr-user list. I will respond, but if this discussion needs to continue, it will need to be moved to the other list. When you delete a document, it doesn't actually get deleted. That record in the index is *marked* as deleted, but it still exists until the index segment that contains it is merged into a new segment. When you change the data type on a field, you must typically delete the entire index and rebuild it from scratch. If this is not done, then Solr will try to interpret the data saved in the index with the old configuration according to the new configuration, which frequently will result in exceptions. https://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToReindex Thanks, Shawn --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
