Christoph,

Before opening JIRA issues, please send an email to the java-user list (see 
http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/mailinglists.html#Java%20User%20List).

The issue you raise here is that each query clause (parenthetical expression or 
entire query) must have a SHOULD or MUST set of results from which to remove 
MUST_NOT documents - in other words, MUST_NOT queries are set-subtractive, and 
unless there is a set of matches from which to subtract -- at the clause level 
-- you get zero hits from that clause.  

You have already found the way to deal with it, that is, adding the 
{noformat}*:*{noformat} match-all-docs query to the clause in question.

>             Project: Lucene - Java
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Query/Scoring
>    Affects Versions: 2.9.3
>            Reporter: Christoph Schmidt
>
> The following two queries are logically equal, but return different document 
> results:
> query1 = +body:term -id:17
> query2 = +(+body:term) +(-id:17)
> query1 returns all documents containing term in the field body not having id 
> 17.
> query2 returns no documents
> Maybe is a kind of optimization that documents with score = 0.0 are ignored?
> query3 = +(+body:term) +(+*:* -id:17)
> has the same result as query1 again.
> Thanks for help.
> Best regards
> Christoph Schmidt
