Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-6003: -------------------------------------- bq: ...is that atomic updates do not work *even if the field being updated is stored*... OK, maybe we're getting close to the issue here. This should absolutely work. A stored field will be preserved when you do an atomic update, you just have to be careful that you use "set" or "add" appropriately if you intention is that you replace all the existing values in a field with the new value or add another value to the field.... > JSON Update increment field with non-stored fields causes subtle problems > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-6003 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6003 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Components: update > Affects Versions: 4.7.1 > Reporter: Kingston Duffie > > In our application we have large multi-field documents. We occasionally need > to increment one of the numeric fields or add a value to a multi-value text > field. This appears to work correctly using JSON update. But later we > discovered that documents were disappearing from search results and > eventually found the documentation that indicates that to use field > modification you must store all fields of the document. > Perhaps you will argue that you need to impose this restriction -- which I > would hope could be overcome because of the cost of us having to store all > fields. But in any case, it would be better for others if you could return > an error if someone tries to update a field on documents with non-stored > fields. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
