You'll need to escape the colon with a backslash, e.g.
fileAbsolutePath:file\:///Volumes/spare/ts/ford/schema/data/news/
fdw2008/jn71796.xml
see the lucene query parser syntax page:
http://lucene.apache.org/java/2_3_2/queryparsersyntax.html#Escaping%20Special%20Characters

Hello
I have a solr field:-
<field name="fileAbsolutePath" type="string" indexed="true"
stored="true" multiValued="false"/>
which an unrelated query reveals is populated with:-
<str name="fileAbsolutePath">
file:///Volumes/spare/ts/ford/schema/data/news/fdw2008/jn71796.xml
</str>
however when I try and query for that exact document explicitly:-
http://localhost:8080/apache-solr-1.4-dev/select?q=fileAbsolutePath:file%3a///Volumes/spare/ts/ford/schema/data/news/fdw2008/jn71796.xml&wt=xml
it fails.
HTTP Status 400 - org.apache.lucene.queryParser.ParseException:

My encoding did not work! Help!
