I think the problem is that you're copying the index files into
${instanceDir}/data and not ${instanceDir}/data/index. The index
directory is what Solr is actually going to use.
Delete everything that already exists in the index directory before
putting the files in there.
You probably don't need to do a full restart, you could probably just
reload the core.
Thanks,
