: I am trying to do a wildcard search in Solr. In lucene I could pass the : query post* and get all the results containg a word beginning with post. : When I do the same in Solr, it doesn't work. Adding the wildcard gives me : less results, this should be the opposite.
can you give us a specific example of wht you are trying to do? what query handler you are using, what the request url looks like, what field you are trying to wilcard on and what it's fieldtype looks like in the schema.xml. off the top of my head i have to wonder if you are using the dismax handler ... it doesn't support wildcards in the "q" param. -Hoss
