Hello - we've just spotted the weirdest issue on Solr 6.1. We have a Solr index full of logs, new items are added every few minutes. We also have an application that shows charts based on what's in the index, Banana style.
Yesterday we saw facets for a specific field were missing. Today we checked it out until we reduced the facet query just to facet=true&facet.field=FIELD, but it returned nothing of use, just an empty set of facets. My colleague suggested the crazy idea to optimize the index, i protested because it is no use, numDoc always equals maxDoc and the optimize button was missing anyway. So i forced an optimize via the URL, and it worked, the facets for that field are now back! Any ideas? Is there a related ticket? Thanks, Markus
