First of all I get an error message on startup with a field definition like: default=EMPTY.
So I'm assuming you are puttint in quotes default="EMPTY" The query q=field:[* TO *] should be fine, as is John's query fq:field:[* TO *] So something's wonky here. I'd start by deleting the entire index on the theory that you're in a state you don't remember (i.e. perhaps during some of your experiments you now have docs with "EMPTY" in the field, some blank and whatever else). Second, don't provide any default for the field. At that point q=field:[* TO *] should work. If it doesn't, please post again with 1> a sample doc 2> the field definition exactly as in your schema file (please copy/paste). 3> the results of adding &debug=query to the URL.
