: ps. I am using mozilla firefox as my main browser which leads to the : behaviour I reported above. IE 6.0 works fine for cyrillics although : there is still a strange but different encoding (%CA%E0%ED%E0%E4%E0 for : the same query as before).
The problem may not be in the Solr internals as much as in the form on the admin screen -- i'm not on a computer where i can do any testing, but the problem may be that the <form> tag in index.jsp/form.jsp doesn't specify any charset options, so the browser is making an assumption (and the Solr internals are making a different one) Another possibility is that this is "yet another jetty issue" Things I'd try if i had the time/resources: 1) Make a Junit test that executes the query you are trying -- this should rule out the possibility of a Lucene/SOlrCore bug 2) Try running SOlr in tomcat and see if that has the same problem. 3) Try adding an accept-charset param to the form on the admin screens and see if that fixes the problem. -Hoss
