Hello, I'm no expert here (just started learning/using Solr a few months ago) but I ran into the same issue of needing to search for and facet on the OR abbreviation.
What worked for me was to double-escape OR (a la :\\OR) for queries and single escape (:\OR) when doing a facet query. The page http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5890401/sunspot-solr-queries-ending-with-logical-operators-and-or-not-result-in-error led me to the solution.

Hi, I would really appreciate any hint/guide to fix this query issue. A Java webapp hits solr with a query that does not returns any result but works for other states. (FL, CA for instance) >From logs: [code] solr path=/select params={facet=on&facet.mincount=5&facet.sort=count&q=listing.property.state:"OR"&facet.limit=12&facet.field=listing.property.city_fStr&wt=javabin&rows=0&version=2} hits=0 status=0 QTime=0 [/code] >From searching the web, I also tried: listing.property.state:OR listing.property.state:\"OR\" listing.property.state:\"+OR\" listing.property.state:+OR and probably multiple combinations of the above returning facet count = 0 There are results for Oregon, also tried facet.mincount=1 (Portland includes 30+ results in my dev laptop) I would say the issue is with q=listing.property.state:"OR" I also tried removing or from stopswords.txt but kept getting 0 count All this was tested using Solr 3.5.0 I'm clueless here, any help will be greatly appreciated.
