How do you create an empty set of Solr index files, should you want to start over?

Thanks,

Shut down solr and delete the data folder. I'm not on a computer with one, but I think it's something along the lines of solr/index/data or or solr/data/index or something similar (someone correct me if I'm wrong). When you restart solr, it will recreate the folder.

Yes, it's solr/data/index/. If you wish to rebuild the index, the
easiest way to do it is to stop Solr, "rm -rf solr/data/index/", start
it up again, and re-index (or, in Solr-speak, re-"update").
