Oops, you're right about the typo! However, after I changed it to: <field multiValued="false" name="Entrez ID" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="true" />
, searching for "335" still returns no result. I did delete the index and re-index the documents after the change. Interestingly, adding * to the search does produce results, and it seems to be the only way to find anything. * by itself finds 549/757 results. *:* finds all 757 results. *[a-zA-Z]* finds nothing. *[0-9]* finds some results. For example, *33* finds 7 results, but it does NOT find the doc with id=335. The results are interesting because I definitely have many indexed fields with [a-zA-Z] characters, but nothing at all is found. ________________________________ From: Ahmet Arslan <iori...@yahoo.com> To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org; Yuhao <nfsvi...@yahoo.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 1, 2012 5:59 PM Subject: Re: Help: nothing is searchable in Solr > For example, I defined a field called "Entrez ID" in my > schema.xml file: > > <field multiValued="false" name="Entrez ID" > type="string" index="true" stored="true" required="true" > /> It could be the typo: index="true" should be indexed="true"
