Hello,
I have a field "sitename" that can contain a word with & character,
"HR &
O".
Problem is when I do the following query : sitename:HR & O, I get
search
results that don't have HR & O in the sitename field.
Is it possible that there is a problem when performing queries
containg &?
First, on troubleshooting... add &debugQuery=true to your request to
Solr and see how your query parses. You'll see output sorta like
this (example using wt=ruby):
'rawquerystring'=>'(tang)',
'querystring'=>'\\(tang\\)',
'parsedquery'=>'+DisjunctionMaxQuery((text:tang^1.9)~0.01)
DisjunctionMaxQuery((title_text:tang^2.2 | isbn_text:tang^5.0 |
author_text:tang^0.5 | call_number_text:tang^5.0)~0.01)',
'parsedquery_toString'=>'+(text:tang^1.9)~0.01
(title_text:tang^2.2 | isbn_text:tang^5.0 | author_text:tang^0.5 |
call_number_text:tang^5.0)~0.01',
Possible solutions for you:
- sitename:(HR & O)
OR
- sitename:"HR & O"
Depending on how you're analyzing (or not) that field.
