Uppercase and lowercase queries

[PeterKerk]

I want to query on cityname. This works when I query for example:
"Boston"

But when I query "boston" it didnt show any results. In the database is
stored: "Boston".

So I thought: I should change the filter on this field to make everything
lowercase.


The field definition for city is: <field name="city" type="string"
indexed="true" stored="true"/>

So I changed its fieldtype "string" from: <fieldType name="string"
class="solr.StrField" sortMissingLast="true" omitNorms="true">

TO:

    <fieldType name="string" class="solr.StrField" sortMissingLast="true"
omitNorms="true">
      <analyzer type="index">
                <tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory"/>
        <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
      </analyzer>       
      <analyzer type="query">
        <tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory"/>
        <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
      </analyzer>
        </fieldType>
        
        
But it still doesnt show any results when I query "boston"...why?
