Whole Phrase search in Solr

2012-12-03 Thread NickA
Hello,

I am trying to achieve searching with a phrase in SOLR. Specifically I have
the following field in my schema:

   


  



  
  



  


Also (as a second similar problem) in the “synonyms.txt” I have values like
these:

aword => a whole phrase

and I even tried:

aword => "a whole phrase"

now I tried searching for “check this” in several ways:

fq=search_field:check this
fq=search_field:check+this
fq=search_field:"check this"
fq=search_field:'check this'

but in all cases the search seems to run for “check OR this”!

similarly, if I search for “aword” which matches the synonyms file, the
search also looks for “a OR whole OR phrase”.

What am I doing wrong? Is there any way to force the query for the whole
phrase and not for each word separately?

Thank you Jack,

the problem with the "AND" is that it does not search for a PHRASE but for
the 2 words being SOMEWHERE in the article.

For example the "Check this" will NOT search for "Check this" as a PHRASE
but for the "Check" word and the "this" word somewhere in the article, even
far away the one from the other.

So the suggestions that you made do not work for searching as a "PHRASE".

Unless we do something wrong?

Any other ideas on the PHRASE search?

Thank you again!

Jack thank you again,

however we have the major problem that using QUOTES to bring "phrase"
results, actually does not bring any results AT ALL!

I mentioned this at the initial post, that we also used these:

fq=search_field:"check this"
fq=search_field:'check this' 

But no results appear when quotes are used. What may be doing wrong in our
configuration?

Hello Jack,

You are the man!

Indeed, this was the problem. We tried several combinations and we thought
that we did that too, but somehow we failed to see that your proposal was
working! Don't know why, maybe we had something else changed in parallel,
don't know.

So, THANK YOU, you have been a great support!
