Hi all, I am trying to debug a problem which i am facing and need some help.
I have a solr query which does join on 2 different cores. so lets say my first core has following 3 docs { "id":"1", "m_id":"lebron", "some_info":"29" } { "id":"2", "m_id":"Wade", "matches_win":"29" } { "id":"3", "m_id":"lebron", "some_info":"1234" } my second core has the following docs { "m_id": "lebron", "team": "miami" } { "m_id": "Wade", "team": "miami" } so now we made an update to doc with lebron and changed the team to "clevelend". So the new docs in core 2 looks like this. { "m_id": "lebron", "team": "clevelend" } { "m_id": "Wade", "team": "miami" } now i am trying to join these 2 and finding the docs form core1 for team miami. my query looks like this fq=+{!join from=m_id to=m_id fromIndex=core2 force=true}team:miami I am expecting it to return doc with id=2 but what i am getting is document 1 and 2. I am not able to figure out what is the problem. Is the query incorrect ? or is there some issue in join. *Couple of observations.* 1.if i remove the + from the filter query it works as expected. so the following query works fq={!join from=m_id to=m_id fromIndex=core2 force=true}team:miami I am not sure how the Must clause affecting the query. *2.* Also if you look the original query is not returning document 3.(however its returning document 1 which has the same m_id). Now the only difference between doc 1 and doc3 is that doc1 was created when "lebron" was part of team: miami. and doc3 was created when the team got updated to "cleveland". So the join is working fine for the new docs in core1 but not for the old docs. 3.If i use q instead of fq the query returns results as expected. q=+{!join from=m_id to=m_id fromIndex=core2 force=true}team:miami and q={!join from=m_id to=m_id fromIndex=core2 force=true}team:miami Both of the above works. I am sure i am missing something how internally join works. I am trying to understand why fq has a different behavior then q with the Must(+) clause. I am using solr 4.10. Thanks Manuj
