Hello,
I'm trying to tune a search handler to get the results that I want. In the
solrconfig.xml I specify several different query fields for the edismax
query parser but it always seems to use the default fields instead.
For example and clarification, when I remove Author from the "df" list of
fields the search results do not come up with the author I was looking for.
But when I add Author back in as a "df" it returns 19/20 of his documents as
the top search results. I guess I'm really confused because when you specify
the query fields solr shouldn't use those default fields. I guess it's not a
real super problem because I can define all the fields I need as defaults.
I'm just trying to figure out where I'm going wrong here. Is there a reason
that this would happen? I have the search handler xml below
<requestHandler name="/select" class="solr.SearchHandler">
<lst name="defaults">
<str name="echoParams">all</str>
<str name="defType">edismax</str>
<str name="df">Author</str> <------ADDING THIS GIVES DESIRED RESULT,
REMOVING BAD--
<str name="df">text</str> -----RESULT. NOTHING ELSE CHANGES
<str name="qf">text^0.5 Title^1.2 Author^2.0</str>
<str name="rows">20</str>
<str name="q.alt">*some author name*</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>
And here is the echoed params of the search
"responseHeader": {
"status": 0,
"QTime": 48,
"params": {
"lowercaseOperators": "true",
"df": [
"Author",
"text"
],
"echoParams": "all",
"indent": "true",
"qf": "text^0.5 Title^1.2 Author^2.0",
"_": "1436291181730",
"q.alt": "*some author name*",
"stopwords": "true",
"wt": "json",
"defType": "edismax",
"rows": "20"
}
