Hi,
The DisMaxQParser does not support wildcards in its q parameter [1]. You must use the LuceneQParser instead. AFAIK, in DisMax, wildcards are part of the search query and may get filtered out in your query analyzer.

I have Solr 4.0 nightly build from the trunk. A general search like 'computer' returns results but 'com*er' doesn't return any results. Similary, a search like 'co?mput?r' returns no results. The only type of wildcard searches working currrently is ones with trailing wildcards(like compute? or comput*). I want to be able to do searches with wildcards at the beginning (*puter) and in between (com*er). Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong and how to fix it. Thanks.
