Problem is SOLR search is refusing to index. In solr.log I just get the repeat

You can try to delete model files under folder ${Solr home directory}/workspace-SpacesStore/alfrescoResources/alfresco/model first and then rebuild solr index.
By the way ,namespace uri definition in you custom model is not well formatted,you'd better name you namespace uri like "http://www.yourcompany.com/*****" instead of "quotall.model" .

Thanks for your reply. Sorry, should have said, I followed the instructions here http://docs.alfresco.com/4.2/tasks/solr-reindex.html which includes the deleting of model files under solr/workspace-SpacesStore/alfrescoModels. Before I deleted them I checked to see if there was a duplicate for "quotall.model" but there wasn't. Deleting the model files made no difference to the error.

If I change the namespace URI presumably that causes problems for any content already using the model? I've seen other posts where people have changed URIs and Alfresco then starts complaining about missing URIs and maybe refuses to start up. Kind of reluctant to change the URI if it means having to start again with an empty repository unless that's the only way to get search working.
