Are you loading that URL directly in the browser? That won't work. You will need to use something like curl. Thus, curl http://localhost:8983/solr/update?commit=true -H "Content-Type: text/xml" --data-binary '<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>' Please see http://wiki.apache.org/solr/UpdateXmlMessages .
