Re: Multi-language indexing and searching

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I realize that hitting a query against the hole content would come with this problems, but what I'm trying to say is that I will always narrow by the language (from my users point of view). I would like to know if it is possible (and appropriate) to have all my conte

How can I use dates to boost my results?

Hi For my search use, the document freshness is a relevant aspect that should be considered to boost results. I have a field in my index like this: How can I make a good use of this to boost my results? I'm using the DisMaxRequestHandler to boost other textual fields based on the query, but i

Re: Multi-language indexing and searching

Hi Daniel, If it is functionally 'ok' to search in only one lang at a time, you could try having one index per lang. Each per-lang index would have one schema where you would describe field types (the lang part coming through stemming/snowball analyzers, per-lang stopwords & al) and the same field

Re: Multi-language indexing and searching

Hi Henri. Thanks for your reply. I've just looked at the patch you referred, but doing this I will lose the out of the box Solr installation... I'll have to create my own Solr application responsible for creating the multiple cores and I'll have to change my indexing process to something able to n

problem with schema.xml

Hi, I just started playing around with Solr 1.2. It has some nice improvements. I noticed that errors in the schema.xml get reported in a verbose way now, but the following steps cause a problem for me: 1. start with a correct schema.xml - Solr works fine 2. edit it in a way that is no longer co

To make sure XML is UTF-8

Hi, Thought this is not directly related to Solr, but I have a XML output from mysql database, but during indexing the XML output is not working. And the problem is part of the XML output is not in UTF-8 encoding, how can I convert it to UTF-8 and how do I know what kind of coding it uses in the

Re: problem with schema.xml

I don't use tomcat, so I can't be particularly useful. The behavior you describe does not happen with resin or jetty... My guess is that tomcat is caching the error state. Since fixing the problem is outside the webapp directory, it does not think it has changed so it stays in a broken state

Hi Ryan, I have my .war file located outside the webapps folder (I am using multiple Solr instances with a config as suggested on the wiki: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat). Nevertheless, I touched the .war file, the config file, the directory under webapps, but nothing seems to be working

Hello Yonik, This is great news. Will it be a drop-in replacement for 1.1? I.e., do I need to make any changes other than replacing the jar files? I suppose the index files will still be good. Are 1.2 schema files and config files compatible with those of 1.1? -- Best regards, Jack Thursday, Ju
