Dear Jena Users,
When i delete a dataset with fuseki, only the configuration file are
removing and not the tdb2 folder
According to the documentation this is expected behaviour :
<https://jena.apache.org/documentation/fuseki2/fuseki-server-protocol.html#removing-a-dataset>
But I have a problem with this when I want to recreate a dataset with
the name, the old data are still here.
How can I delete the tdb2 dataset with fuseki by interface or API?
Currently, that isn't possible.
You can delete the folder via the OS.
Feel free to raise an issue for a new feature. We can add a query string
item and do the same as compact which hs a ?deleteOld flag.
However, there is also the issue in the general case that other
operations maybe be using the database concurrently. Maybe renaming
aside is better - already started requests will finish cleanly.
Note that on MS Windows, it isn't possible to free the space. It is a
JVM feature on MS Windows that memory mapped files do not go away until
the JVM exists. This is a long-standing issue of Java.

Thanks,
