You'll probably get a better response from solr-users. In any case,
posting the relevant fieldtype definition from your schema.xml and, for
good measure, the results of a query with debugQuery on would be
helpful. Off the top of my head, I'd say it may be a combination of not
using index time expansion on the synonym filter (query time expansion
on multi-word synonyms can be wonky) and a word delimiter filter that's
configured to split on numerics, i.e. "co2" => "co", "2".

Greetings--
I'm trying to flesh out my synonyms.txt file for a couple of Solr indexes,
and I stumbled across something weird. I added these lines to synonyms.txt:
co2, carbon dioxide
ch4, methane
The second line worked as expected: I restarted Solr, reindexed, and could
search ch4 and methane as synonyms of each other.
The first line did something weird. Before the change, I can get results
for both CO2 and for "CARBON DIOXIDE" (just different results). After the
change, searching CO2 got zero results, as did "CARBON DIOXIDE". So at
least they're acting like synonyms, right? But why in the world do they
both stop finding hits?
Pre-change:
CO2 225 hits
"CARBON DIOXIDE" 130 hits
CARBON DIOXIDE 1030 hits
Post-change:
CO2 0 hits
"CARBON DIOXIDE" 0 hits
CARBON DIOXIDE 1030 hits
Also, if I want to be able to search for Greek letters by name (alpha,
beta, etc.), is there a better way than to use synonmyms.txt?
