Hi! Thanks for all the replies. I do know that the readers should be reopened, but that is not the problem. I try to remove some docs, and add their new versions again to incrementally update the index. After updating the index with the same document twice, I opened the index in luke. There I saw that the file's uri was present three times in the uri field. So, I concluded, it didn't delete the docs right as there are in total three documents which contain this term, right? By the way, Reader.delete() returned 0 as well.
I thought I used Field.Keyword(), but actually I use doc.add(new Field(URI_FIELD, uri, true, true, false)); to add the uri to the doc. I can see it in luke, and even find the docs when searching for it (using the KeywordAnalyzer). Any ideas?

Do I have to make the uri a normal field? How do you know nothing was deleted? Are you aware that you need to re-open your IndexSearcher/Reader in order to see the changes made to the index?
