Looks like this thread is duplicate of https://hub.alfresco.com/t5/alfresco-content-services-forum/delete-an-aspect-from-active-model/m-p/309342#M25498

But, can you explain what exactly you are trying. Please share the model and required changes you want to do.

Hi ,

Thank you so much for your reply. Actually, I am new to alfresco and my problem is:
I added an aspect to the model and I forgot to add the parent for this aspect.
so I want to update this aspect to add the parent aspect for it or delete this aspect and recreate it again

Ideally it should not be an issue if you added the aspect to model and want to add parent to the aspect unless that aspect is already applied to nodes. These are incremental changes and should work. Also checkout this thread: https://hub.alfresco.com/t5/alfresco-content-services-forum/non-incremental-model-changes/m-p/302455

Sometimes solr may report error when i tries to sync the model. In this case you need to delete indexes and models and restart

If you have not applied the aspect already, you should try adding the parent. If you have applied the aspect already checkout the options given here: https://hub.alfresco.com/t5/alfresco-content-services-forum/delete-an-aspect-from-active-model/m-p/309342#M25498
