Hi,

I'm actually facing a issues reguarding a process on our Solr Webapp

We currently reindexe all document every X days since our stopwords
and synonyms list are very often edited and since we use
stopwordFilter and SynFilter at index time.

For that process, I wrote a Ant script that do something like :

1) - Stop Solr webapp with Tomcat Manager "Stop" task
2) - Delete "synonym.txt" file
3) - Delete "stopwords.txt" file
4) - Delete "index" folder
5) - Start Solr webapp with Tomcat Manager "Start" task
6) - Repost all document with post.jar

Everything seems to work fine, but sometime it seems that the webapp
Stop doesn't properly stop the webapp since the files remains locked
(but the webapp is
actually stopped) and so the delete could not be done.

I found on the net an attribute on the <context> tag on Tomcat 5.5
configuration files, "antiResourceLocking", that seems to work fine,
but the lock remains sometimes...

So I looked into the sorl mailing list, and found a thread that show
how to totally reset the index file using the XmlPost

<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>

followed by

<optimize waitFlush="false" waitSearcher="false"/>

This solve my index problem, but still remains the issue concerning
the synonyms and stopwords list

Is their a way, like '<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>', to reinit
the synonyms and stopword list without stopping the solr webapp ?

Thanks in advance !

Laurent
