Hi Jakob,
Deleting the Label should work. MarkLogic is only telling it didn’t find one, and will create a new one on the go afaik.. Not sure why it is complaining in the first place though. Don’t see why a forest name should influence the contents of any of the forest files, but you never know..

I found this exchange from last year http://markmail.org/thread/3xtlnvrg5izvbdbm where Jim suggests successfully, it seems to delete the Label file and to restart the server. When we do this ML explains about a missing Label file... maybe this is not the same case where this error message is returned. cheers, Jakob.

Another approaches could be replication. It might also depend whether you need a clean database each testrun, because you typically mess things up with testing, or not.
