Natalia,
First make sure that your analyzers (both index and query analyzers) do not filter out these as stop words. I think the standard StopFilter list has "no" and "not". You can try to see if you index have these terms by querying for "no" as a TermQuery. If there is not match for that query, then you know for sure they have been filtered out.
The next thing is to check is your query parser. What query parser are you using? Some parser actually understands the "not" term and rewrite to a negation query.
Hope this helps,
Tri

Hi All,
Is there any way I could construct a query that would not automatically
exclude negation terms (such as "no", "not", etc)? For example, I need to
find strings like "not happy", "no idea", "never available". I tried
using a simple analyzer with combinations such as "not AND happy", and
similar patterns, but it does not work.
Any help would be appreciated!
