Interesting, I was under the impression that case does not matter. >From http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler#A_shorter_data-config : "It is possible to totally avoid the field entries in entities if the names of the fields are same (case does not matter) as those in Solr schema" I confirmed that matching the schema.xml field case to the database table is needed for dynamic fields, and the wiki statement above is incorrect, or at the very least confusing, possibly a bug. My database is Oracle 10g and the column names have been created in all uppercase in the database. In Oracle: Table name: wide_table Column names: COLUMN_1 ... COLUMN_100 (yes, uppercase) Please see following scenarios and results I found: data-config.xml <entity name="item" query="select column_1,column_100 from wide_table"> <field column="column_100" name="id"/> </entity> schema.xml <dynamicField name="column_*" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true" /> Result: Nothing Imported ========= data-config.xml <entity name="item" query="select COLUMN_1,COLUMN_100 from wide_table"> <field column="column_100" name="id"/> </entity> schema.xml <dynamicField name="column_*" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true" /> Result: Note query column names changed to uppercase. Nothing Imported ========= data-config.xml <entity name="item" query="select column_1,column_100 from wide_table"> <field column="COLUMN_100" name="id"/> </entity> schema.xml <dynamicField name="column_*" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true" /> Result: Note ONLY the field entry was changed to caps All records imported, with only COLUMN_100 id field. ============ data-config.xml <entity name="item" query="select column_1,column_100 from wide_table"> <field column="COLUMN_100" name="id"/> </entity> schema.xml <dynamicField name="COLUMN_*" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true" /> Result: Note BOTH the field entry was changed to caps in data-config.xml, and the dynamicField wildcard in schema.xml All records imported, with all fields specified. This is the behavior desired. ============= > >Second what does your db-data-config.xml look like > > The relevant data-config.xml is as follows: <document name=""> <entity name="item" query="select COLUMN_1,COLUMN_100 from wide_table"> <field column="COLUMN_100" name="id"/> </entity> </document> Ideally, I would rather have the query be 'select * from wide_table" with the fields being dynamically matched by the column name from the dynamicField wildcard from the schema.xml. <dynamicField name="COLUMN_*" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/> -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/DataImportHandler-dynamic-fields-clarification-tp1606159p1609578.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
