: I received a report of a problem with posting data to Solr. The post
: method is a multi-part form, so if you inspect it, it looks something
: like this:
...
: What's happening, though, when this is posted to Solr is that any
: semicolons in the data are being interpreted as multi-value separators.
: So when the above is posted, Solr apparently thinks that
: "metadata_attribute_name" has 4 values, "abc", "def", "ghi", and "second
: value", rather than two values, "abc;def;ghi" and "second value".
karl: can you be more specific about how exactly someone can recreate the
the problem? specificly: where do you see 4 values?
Using the HTML form below, and submitting to "nc -l "8983" i was able to
recreate nearly exactly the MIME content you mentioned. when i killed nc,
ran the solr example in it's place, and resubmited the form, the
echoParams output showed me that solr was recognizing the expected two
values for "metadata_attribute_name" ...

<arr name="metadata_attribute_name"><str>abc;def;ghi</str><str>second
value</str></arr>
