Or, if you happen to leave off the "words" attribute of the stop filter (or
misspell the attribute name), it will use the internal Lucene hardwired list
of stop words.

Hi Teague,
The StopFilterFactory (which I think you're using) by default uses
lang/stopwords_en.txt (which wouldn't be empty if you check).
What you're looking at is the stopword.txt. You could either empty
that file out or change the field type for your field.

Hello all,
I am working with Solr 4.9.0 and am searching for phrases that contain
words
like "of" or "to" that Solr seems to be ignoring at index time. Here's
what
I tried:
curl http://localhost/solr/update?commit=true -H "Content-Type: text/xml"
--data-binary '<add><doc><field name="id">100</field><field
name="content">blah blah blah knowledge of science blah blah
blah</field></doc></add>'
Then, using a broswer:
http://localhost/solr/collection1/select?q="knowledge+of+science"&fq=id:100
I get zero hits. Search for "knowledge" or "science" and I'll get hits.
"knowledge of" or "of science" and I get zero hits. I don't want to use
proximity if I can avoid it, as this may introduce too many undesireable
results. Stopwords.txt is blank, yet clearly Solr is ignoring "of" and
"to"
and possibly more words that I have not discovered through testing yet. Is
there some other configuration file that contains these small words? Is
there any way to force Solr to pay attention to them and not drop them
from
the phrase? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!
