Back to Indexes

If during your upgrade you decide to use the SOLR service to deliver indexes, then you need to purge the old PostgreSQL/Oracle database indexes.

Check that you have a backup of the database before doing any purging. You have been warned.

A new command has been introduced with DSpace =>5.X. See below for an example.

$HOME/bin/dspace index-db-browse -f -d

Login into the server as the dspace user and then type the following;

sudo -i

su - postgres

psql dspace

DELETE from communities2item;

\q

exit

exit

exit

I used pgadmin to do a "cascade drop" of all the bi_* tables, where bi = browse index.

+==Please Note:==
-The browse indexes for DSpace can be extensively configured. The configuration allows you to take control of the indexes you wish to browse, and how you wish to present the results. With DSpace versions =>3.X, the browse indexes can now be delivered via the SOLR service, if so desired. The browse indexes were previously only delivered via the PostgreSQL/Oracle database service. If during your upgrade you decide to use the SOLR service to deliver indexes, then you need to purge the old PostgreSQL/Oracle database indexes.
