It seems like your database and your indexes are not in sync.
Try once with full index true in alfresco-globle.properties file.
Restart server.
If does not work better to go for fresh installation.

thank you for your reply!

that was our first guess too, but we rebuilt the index several times without any luck.

i read about problems with the records management module model, may this cause solr problems? in my understanding solr shouldn't be running, since it is not used. or am i missing something?

Have you changed this sub system settings after doing some transactions?
then I guess it could created problem.
Some got indexed by solr some by lucene.
Just a guess.

If you are running with lucene only you can remove the solr app. Solr runs as a separate application, and can run simultaneous to lucene. But the repository will not use it for search, it just index in the background.
So when you do
index.recovery.mode=FULL
it will only do a full re-index for lucene.
For a full solr re-index, you have to stop solr, and delete the solr index directory. That may be what have happened here, you haven't actually re-indexed solr.

Back to how to remove solr
Stop tomcat
delete tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/solr.xml
delete directory tomcat/webapps/solr
restart

Just in case, that you still get solr exceptions after following given instructions to disable SOLR. There might be exclusive SOLR configuration in alfresco-global.properties and/or repository.properties. Check for index.subsystem.name 😎 .

Hi Loftux, I am a new alfresco user, and I have the same problem (SEVERE: SOLR has successfully connected to your repository however the SOLR indexes and repository database do not match.). I can see that the solution is:

Back to how to remove solr
Stop tomcat
delete tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/solr.xml
delete directory tomcat/webapps/solr
restart

so, what implications that do this procedure?, indispensalbe information be deleted for operating alfresco?, or affect some other documents and I have already loaded in alfresco?

sorry for my english.

Thanks !!
