Hi Chris, thanks for the fast response. I'll try to be more specific about the problem I am having.

The problem I have is if I try to parse this response in *php *using *json_decode()* I get a syntax error because of the '*\n*' s that are in the response. I could escape the before doing the *json_decode() *or at the point of submitting to the index but this seems wrong... I am probably doing something silly and a good nights sleep will reveal what I am doing wrong ;-) Thanks Steven On 23 January 2014 16:15, Chris Hostetter-3 [via Lucene] < ml-node+s472066n4113017...@n3.nabble.com> wrote: > > : I am finding that if any fields in a document returned by a Solr query > : (*wt=json* to get a JSON response) contain backslash *'\'* characters, > they > : are not being escaped (to make then valid JSON). > > you're going to have to give us more concrete specifics on how you are > indexing your data, and how you are looking at the response, because i > can't reproduce anything close to what you are describing (see below) > > https://wiki.apache.org/solr/UsingMailingLists > > > > > hossman@frisbee:~$ cat tmp/tmp.xml > <add> > <doc> > <field name="id">HOSS</field> > <field name="name">quote: (") backslash: (\) backslash-quote: (\") > newline: ( > ) backslash-n: (\n)</field> > </doc> > </add> > > > hossman@frisbee:~$ curl ' > http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/update?commit=true' --data-binary > @tmp/tmp.xml -H 'Content-Type: application/xml' > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <response> > <lst name="responseHeader"><int name="status">0</int><int > name="QTime">678</int></lst> > </response> > > > > hossman@frisbee:~$ curl ' > http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/select?q=id:HOSS&indent=true&omitHeader=true&wt=xml' > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <response> > > <result name="response" numFound="1" start="0"> > <doc> > <str name="id">HOSS</str> > <str name="name">quote: (") backslash: (\) backslash-quote: (\") > newline: ( > ) backslash-n: (\n)</str> > <long name="_version_">1458038035233898496</long></doc> > </result> > </response> > > > hossman@frisbee:~$ curl ' > http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/select?q=id:HOSS&indent=true&omitHeader=true&wt=json' > { > "response":{"numFound":1,"start":0,"docs":[ > { > "id":"HOSS", > "name":"quote: (\") backslash: (\\) backslash-quote: (\\\") > newline: (\n) backslash-n: (\\n)", > "_version_":1458038035233898496}] > }} > > > hossman@frisbee:~$ cat tmp/tmp.json > [ > {"id" : "HOSS", > "name" : "quote: (\") backslash: (\\) backslash-quote: (\\\") newline: > (\n) backslash-n: (\\n)"} > ] > > > hossman@frisbee:~$ curl ' > http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/update?commit=true' --data-binary > @tmp/tmp.json -H 'Content-Type: application/json' > {"responseHeader":{"status":0,"QTime":605}} > > > hossman@frisbee:~$ curl ' > http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/select?q=id:HOSS&indent=true&omitHeader=true&wt=xml' > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <response> > > <result name="response" numFound="1" start="0"> > <doc> > <str name="id">HOSS</str> > <str name="name">quote: (") backslash: (\) backslash-quote: (\") > newline: ( > ) backslash-n: (\n)</str> > <long name="_version_">1458038130437259264</long></doc> > </result> > </response> > > > hossman@frisbee:~$ curl ' > http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/select?q=id:HOSS&indent=true&omitHeader=true&wt=json' > { > "response":{"numFound":1,"start":0,"docs":[ > { > "id":"HOSS", > "name":"quote: (\") backslash: (\\) backslash-quote: (\\\") > newline: (\n) backslash-n: (\\n)", > "_version_":1458038130437259264}] > }} > > > > > -Hoss > http://www.lucidworks.com/ > > > ------------------------------ > If you reply to this email, your message will be added to the discussion > below: > > http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Solr-solr-JSONResponseWriter-not-escaping-backslash-characters-tp4112990p4113017.html > To unsubscribe from Solr solr.JSONResponseWriter not escaping backslash > '\' characters, click > here<http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=unsubscribe_by_code&node=4112990&code=c3RldmVuQGFjdHVhbC1zeXN0ZW1zLmNvbXw0MTEyOTkwfC0xMTI0NTgzNDI1> > . > NAML<http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=macro_viewer&id=instant_html%21nabble%3Aemail.naml&base=nabble.naml.namespaces.BasicNamespace-nabble.view.web.template.NabbleNamespace-nabble.view.web.template.NodeNamespace&breadcrumbs=notify_subscribers%21nabble%3Aemail.naml-instant_emails%21nabble%3Aemail.naml-send_instant_email%21nabble%3Aemail.naml> > -- Kind regards Steven McGovern Hollander International Systems Ltd t: +44 (0)131 538 8538 f: +44 (0)131 538 8539 e: ste...@actual-systems.com w: http://www.actual-systems.com [image: Hollander International RGB (2)] Search the UK's largest online used part database: http://www.autopartstrader.co.uk Vat Registration No. 429422452 Registered in Scotland No. SC211063 Registered Office: Birch House, 10 Bankhead Crossway South, Edinburgh, EH11 4EP image003.png (23K) <http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/attachment/4113029/0/image003.png> -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Solr-solr-JSONResponseWriter-not-escaping-backslash-characters-tp4112990p4113029.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
