Hey Solr community, I’m having an issue deleting documents from my Solr index and am seeking some community advice when somebody gets a spare minute. It seems really like a really simple problem …a requirement to delete a document by its id.
Here’s how my documents are mapped in solr <uniqueKey>DOC_ID</uniqueKey> <field name="DOC_ID" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="true" multiValued="false" /> My json format to delete the document (all looks correct according to https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_6/uploading-data-with-index-handlers.html “The JSON update format allows for a simple delete-by-id. The value of a delete can be an array which contains a list of zero or more specific document id’s (not a range) to be deleted. For example, a single document”) Attempt 1 – “shorthand” {“delete”:”123!12345”} Attempt 2 – “longhand” {“delete”:“DOC_ID”:”123!12345”} {“delete”:{“DOC_ID”:”123!12345”}} ..the error is the same in all instances “org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Document is missing mandatory uniqueKey field: DOC_ID” Can anyone see any obvious details I’m overlooking? I’ve tried all the update handlers below (both curl and through admin ui) /update/ /update/json /update/json/docs My environment Solr cloud 7.6 Single node As always any advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Dwane
