Hi All I have a following field settings in solr schema
<field name="<b>Exact_Word*" omitPositions="true" termVectors="false" omitTermFreqAndPositions="true" compressed="true" type="string_ci" multiValued="false" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" omitNorms="true"/> <field name="Word" compressed="true" type="email_text_ptn" multiValued="false" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" omitNorms="true"/> <fieldtype name="string_ci" class="solr.TextField" sortMissingLast="true" omitNorms="true"><analyzer><tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory"/><filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/></analyzer></fieldtype> <copyField source="Word" dest="Exact_Word"/> As you can see Exact_Email has the KeywordTokenizerFactory and that should treat the string as it is. But when I enter email with the following string "d!sdasdsdwasd...@dsadsadas.edu" it splits the string to two. I was under the impression that KeywordTokenizerFactory will treat the string as it is. *!* Following is the query debug result. There you can see it has split the word "parsedquery":"+((DisjunctionMaxQuery((Exact_Email:d)) -DisjunctionMaxQuery((Exact_Email:sdasdsdwasd...@dsadsadas.edu)))~1)", can someone please tell why it produce the query result as this If I put a string without the "!" sign as below, the produced query will be as below "parsedquery":"+DisjunctionMaxQuery((Exact_Email:testresu...@testdomain.com))", I thought if the KeywordTokenizerFactory is applied then it should return the exact string as it is Please help me to understand what is going wrong here -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/KeywordTokenizerFactory-splits-the-string-for-the-exclamation-mark-tp4135460.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
