It looks like you are missing a data model, itdwf after upgrade. It was probably installed by a module you no longer have, or is one custom data model created by you. Nodede exist in your repository that use this namespace, therefor solr cannot index them
Add that model and it should be fine.
And if it is still complaining, you may need to purge your solr index, remove the index and the data models in solr/archive-SpacesStore/alfrescoModels and solr/workspace-SpacesStore/alfrescoModels

Let me guess - you had Alvex 1.2.x in your Alfresco 4.0.d installation.

You have two options now:
<ol>
<li>Remove nodes in the repo that use Alvex models. After it you can remove models safely. Your issue is not about just SOLR indexes themselves - you have nodes in the repository that still use Alvex models.</li>
<li>Install alvex-*-compat-* packages as described in http://docs.alvexcore.com/en-US/Alvex/1.3/html/Admin_Guide/ch06s03.html These packages contain legacy Alvex 1.2.x models only and do not contain active Alvex modules. They are meant exactly for the case if you want to remove Alvex but do not want to clean up the repo.</li>
</ol>

Thank You for your great answer!
Did you know, how to remove nodes, without writing code?
