Hi Vijaya, I just quickly tried proximity search with the example set shipped with solr 5 and it looked like working for me. Perhaps, what you could is debug the query by enabling debugQuery=true.
Here are the steps that I tried.(Assuming you are on Solr 5. Though this term proximity functionality should work for 4.x versions too) 1. Go to solr5.0 downloaded folder and navigate to bin. Rajanis-MacBook-Pro:solr-5.0.0 rajanishivarajmaski$ bin/solr -e techproducts 2. Execute the below query. The field "name" has value "Test with some GB18030 encoded characters" and you search for name: "Test GB18030"~10 http://localhost:8983/solr/techproducts/select?q=name: "Test GB18030"~10&wt=json&indent=true Image : http://postimg.org/image/bjkbufsph/ On Thu, Apr 30, 2015 at 7:14 PM, Vijaya Narayana Reddy Bhoomi Reddy < vijaya.bhoomire...@whishworks.com> wrote: > I just tried with simple proximity search like "word1 word2" ~3 and it is > not working.
