Hi, I defined a field "id" in my schema.xml and use it as an <uniqueKey>: <field name="id" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="true" /> <uniqueKey>id</uniqueKey>
I want to store URLs with a prefix in this field to be sure that every id is unique among websites. For example: domain_http://www.domain.com/?p=12345 foo_http://foo.com bar_http://bar.com/?doc=452 I wrote a Java app, which uses Solrj to communicate with a running Solr instance. Solr (or Solrj, not sure about this) complains that it can't parse ":": Exception in thread "main" org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: org.apache.lucene.queryparser.classic.ParseException: Cannot parse 'id:domain_http://www.domain.com/?p=12345': Encountered " ":" ": "" at line 1, column 14. How should I handle characters like ":" to solve this problem? I already tried to escape the ":" like this: String id = "domain_http://www.domain.com/?p=12345".replaceAll(":", "\\\\:")); ... document.addField("id", id); ... But then Solr (or Solrj) complains again: Exception in thread "main" org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: org.apache.lucene.queryparser.classic.ParseException: Cannot parse 'id:domain_http\://www.domain.com/?p=12345': Lexical error at line 1, column 42. Encountered: <EOF> after : "/?p=12345" I use 4 backslashes (\\\\) for double-escape. The first escape is for Java itself, the second is for Solr to handle it (I guess). So what is the correct or usual way to deal with special characters like ":" in Solr (or Solrj)? I don't know if Solr or Solrj is the problem, but I guess it is Solrj?
