I've run into the same issue with a Rails application that uses the Rsolr gem to make calls to Solr. I will have to check if the issue is in Rsolr or in my application, changing the %2B (+ sign) to a %20 (space char) in the request URL fixes the issue.
I also just wanted to say hello to wunder. I used to work as a systems administrator at HP when we were both at Pacific Technology Park in Sunnyvale. I moved to NY in 1994 and have been working as a programmer at Cornell University ever since. -- Sent from: https://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Solr-User-f472068.html
