: AND does not controll scoring, only matching.  If you want dismax to
: be purely additive, pass tie=1.0 to the handler.

more specificly: the defaultOperator option in the schema.xml does not
affect the dismax parser used on the q param at all (only the stock
SolrQueryParser used for things like the the fq and bq params)

Additive scoring using Dismax...

[escher2k]

I am trying to search across multiple fields using the AND operator. Somehow,
when the results
are returned, the score seems to be retrieving the max value and not really
adding them up. In
the example given below, the value that is returned (825) is really the max
instead of what
I was expecting (1597.5 = 22.5 + 825 + 150 + 600).  

Is there any way to get the additive effect ? I thought using AND would do
it. Thanks a lot.

Relevant section of schema.xml:
 uniqueKeyuniq_id/uniqueKey
 defaultSearchFieldskills/defaultSearchField
 solrQueryParser defaultOperator=AND/
 similarity class=ProviderSimilarity/

Results for a given field:
str name=id=300723_1843624_10183,internal_docid=36638
825.0 = (MATCH) sum of: 825.0 = (MATCH) max of: 
22.5 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(dtl_svc_descr:php in 36638), product of: 15.0 =
tf(termFreq(dtl_svc_descr:php)=1) 1.0 = idf(docFreq=9473) 1.5 =
fieldNorm(field=dtl_svc_descr, doc=36638) 
825.0 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(past_proj_descr:php in 36638), product of: 550.0
= tf(termFreq(past_proj_descr:php)=17) 1.0 = idf(docFreq=827) 1.5 =
fieldNorm(field=past_proj_descr, doc=36638) 
150.0 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(tagline:php in 36638), product of: 100.0 =
tf(termFreq(tagline:php)=1) 1.0 = idf(docFreq=881) 1.5 =
fieldNorm(field=tagline, doc=36638) 
600.0 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(past_proj_name:php in 36638), product of: 400.0
= tf(termFreq(past_proj_name:php)=5) 1.0 = idf(docFreq=301) 1.5 =
fieldNorm(field=past_proj_name, doc=36638)
