There were a few threads in the mailing list concerning this issue. You should check the archive. I think the problem is that the wildcard search is case-sensitive. Try to lowercase the entire query before passing it into the query parser.

I have a PDF document. Using PDFBox library i get the contents of the PDF file as a String. This string gets indexed using the StandardAnalyser. This document contain both "java" and "Java". When I examin the index that has been created, it shows "java" ONLY not "Java". Now i am doing a wild card search on it. Eg: ja* I get the right result (which is the above document). But when i search for "Ja*", i get nothing. shouldnt this also throw the above document as a result?? probably i am missing out something. Please help... thanks in advance subhro
