Hello, We're building a webapplication that uses Solr for searching and I've come upon a problem that I can't seem to get my head around.
We have a servlet that accepts input via XML-RPC and based on that input constructs the correct URL to perform a search with the Solr-servlet. I know that the call to Solr (the URL) from our servlet looks like this (which is what it should look like): http://myserver:8080/solrproducts/select/?q=all_SV:ljusblå+status:online&fl=id%2Cartno%2Ctitle_SV%2CtitleSort_SV%2Cdescription_SV%2C&sort=titleSort_SV+asc,id+asc&start=0&q.op=AND&rows=25 But Solr reports the input-fields (the GET-variables in the URL) as: INFO: /select/ fl=id,artno,title_SV,titleSort_SV,description_SV,&sort=titleSort_SV+asc,id+asc&start=0&q=all_SV:ljusblÃ¥+status:online&q.op=AND&rows=25 which is all fine except where it says "ljusblÃ¥". Apparently Solr is interpreting the UTF-8 string "ljusblå" as ISO-8859-1 and thus creates this garbage that makes the search return 0 when it should in reality return 3 hits. All other searches that don't use special characters work 100% fine. I'm new to Solr so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Can anybody help me out and point me in the direction of a solution? Sincerely, Daniel Löfquist
