I am not sure that is weird behavior.  If you have a delete trigger that has a 
lot of work to do, for example, that would certainly impact the performance of 
deletes.  So it all depends on the totality of what is going on in your 
environment.

Hey Danny,

                Seems that I'd set triggers to triggers database and this was 
causing xdmp:directory-delete() not to work. Hope you had fixed this. I would 
have never suspected that triggers would have such an impact. weird behavior 
isn't it?

Cheers

Hi Raghu,

That sounds right because in 4.2, there were a number of inconsistencies in the 
way MarkLogic handled directory and property deletes that were fixed.  This was 
to support standalone properties (a property with no corresponding document at 
the same URI).

You can use a combination of the URI lexicon (cts:uri-match) and 
xdmp:document-delete to accomplish the same thing when you do not have the 
directories in your database.  Something like (this is untested):

for $x in cts:uri-match("/my/dir/*")
return
xdmp:document-delete($x)

HI Danny,

            I tried the same in 4.2 version and even though there was no 
property document for the directory, the directory gets deleted succesfully but 
in 4.1 it throws a xdmp:doc-not -found. Am I right? is this the root cause or 
am I missing something? Please help me out

P.S: Sorry I'd given the version wrong in my previous mail, please ignore it

Thanks in advance
Raghu

Hi Raghu,

I can think of 2 things to look at:



1)      Make sure the directory exists.  A directory is a properties document 
with the special directory element.  Try running the following, substituting 
the dir URI for $uri:

xdmp:document-properties($uri)

this should return a properties document with a directory element.  If it does 
not, then the directory does not exist.


2)      Make sure the user who is running the directory-delete has permissions 
to see the directory.   You can check that by looking at the permissions on the 
directory:

xdmp:document-get-permissions($uri)

Also, what version of marklogic are you running (xdmp:version() )?

Hi All,

       I'm  trying to delete a directory usind xdmp:directory-delete; it 
returns a   xdmp:doc-not-found but when I do a xdmp:directory of the same uri 
I'm able to see the documents inside the folder. These directories are created 
from a trigger. does it have anything to do with it? Should I set any document 
proerty? Please help me out.



Thanks in advance
