: I have found that this search crashes: : : /solr/select?q=*%3A*&fq=&start=0&rows=1&fl=id
Ouch .. that exception is kind of hairy. it suggests that your index may have been corrupted in some way -- do you have nay idea what happened? have you tried using hte CheckIndex tool to see what it says? (I'd hate to help you workd arround this but get bit by a timebomb of some other bad docs later) : It looks like just that first document is bad. I am happy to delete it - but : not sure how to get to it. Does anyone know how to find it? CheckIndexes might help ... if it doesn't the next thing you might try is asking for a legitimate field name that you know no document has (ie: if you have a dynamicField with the pattern "str_*" because you have fields like "str_foo" and "str_bar" but you never have fields named "str____BOGUS" then use fl=str____BOGUS) and then add debugQuery=true to the URL -- the debug info should contain the id. I'll be honest thought: i'm guessing that if your example query doesn't work, by suggestion won't either -- because if you get that error just trying to access the "id" field, the same thing will probably happen when the debugComponent tries to look at up as well. -Hoss
