I have the following field configured in schema.xml: <field name="title" type="text" indexed="true" stored="true" omitNorms="false" boost="3.0" />
Where "text" is the type which came with the Solr distribution. I have not been able to get this configuration to alter any document scores, and if I look at the indexes in Luke there is no change in the norms (compared to an un-boosted equivalent). I have confirmed that document boosting works (via SolrJ), but our field boosting needs to be done in the schema. Am I doing something wrong (BTW I have tried using "3.0f" as well, no difference)? Also, I have seen no debug output during startup which would indicate that fild boosting is being configured - should there be any? I have found no usage examples of this in the Solr 1.4 book, except a vague discouragement - is this a deprecated feature?
