Which Solr version are you using ? >From the documentation : "Only query words, which are absent in index or too rare ones (below maxQueryFrequency ) are considered as misspelled and used for finding suggestions. ... These parameters (maxQueryFrequency and thresholdTokenFrequency) can be a percentage (such as .01, or 1%) or an absolute value (such as 4)."
Checking in the latest source code[1] : public static final float DEFAULT_MAXQUERYFREQUENCY = 0.01f; This means that for the direct Solr Spellcheck, you should not get the suggestion if the term has a Document Frequency >=0.01 ( so if a term is in the index ) . Can you show us the snippet of the result you got ? ----- --------------- Alessandro Benedetti Search Consultant, R&D Software Engineer, Director Sease Ltd. - www.sease.io -- Sent from: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Solr-User-f472068.html
