I think I misunderstood your issue, what I said applies only to sorting on that field.

As soon as you perform a filter by querying a particuliar field, documents without a value in that field are filtered out.

Christopher is right in is answer, and therefor by ORing both filters you should get the results-set you were expected.

You might then want to sort on that field, and this time my previous answer could help ;-).

Sorry for confusing you!

Hello,

If the number stored is not in a string field, you will need solr >= 3.5 to perform what you want.

Since solr 3.5 it's possible to set the attribute sortMissingLast or sortMissingFirst to true, within the field definition (an example is available in the schema.xml provided with solr 3.5)

Hope this helps,

-filterMinutes:[* TO *] should return documents that do not have a value assigned to that field.

Evening all,

A subset of my documents have a field, filterMinutes, that some other documents do not. filterMinutes stores a number.

I often issue a query that contains a filter query range, e.g.

q=filterMinutes:[* TO 50]

I am finding that adding this query excludes all documents that do not feature this field, but what I want is for the filter query to act upon those documents that do have the field but also to return documents that don't have it at all.

Is this a possibility?

Best,

Allistair
