Hi Folks,
I was trying to get multi term synonyms to work. I'm experiencing some
strange behavior and would like some feedback.
In the synonyms file I have the line:
thomas, boll holly, thomas a, john q => tom
And I have a document with the text field as;
tom
However, when I do a search on boll holly, it does not return the document
with tom. The same thing happens if I do a query on john q. But if I do a
query on thomas, it gives me the document. Also, if I quote "boll holly" or
"john q" it gives back the document.
When I look at the analyzer page on the solr admin page, it is transforming
"boll holly" to "tom" when it isn't quoted. Why is it that it is not
returning the document? Is there some configuration I can make so it does
return the document if I do an unquoted search on "boll holly"?
My synonym filter is defined as follows, and is only defined on the query
side:
<filter class="solr.SynonymFilterFactory"
synonyms="synonyms.txt" ignoreCase="true" expand="true"/>
I've also tried changing the synonym file to be
tom, thomas, boll holly, thomas a, john q
This produces the same results.
Thanks,
Brad
