problems finding negative values

2007-04-04 Thread galo

Hi,

I have an index consisting on the following fields:

field name=id type=long indexed=true stored=true/
field name=length type=integer indexed=true stored=true/
field name=key type=integer indexed=true stored=true 
multiValued=true /


Each doc has a few key values, some of which are negative.

Ok, I know there's a document that has both 826606443 and -1861807411

If I search with

http://localhost:8080/solr/select/?stylesheet=version=2.1start=0rows=50indent=onq=-1861807411fl=id,length,key

I get no results, but if I do

http://localhost:8080/solr/select/?stylesheet=version=2.1start=0rows=50indent=onq=826606443fl=id,length,key

I get the document as expected.

Obviously the key field is configured as a search field, indexed, etc. 
but somehow solr doesn't like negatives. I'm assuming this might have 
something to do with analysers but can't tell how to fix it.. any ideas??


Thanks

galo

It doesn't have anything to do with analyzers, it has to do with the
Lucene query parser that Solr uses.  A minus sign means must not
appear, so
q=-1861807411 means 1861807411 must not appear in the default search field.

Try escaping the - by enclosing the search term in quotes, or
backslash escaping it.

q=-1861807411

This one caught us as well.

Refer to
http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/queryparsersyntax.html#Escaping%20Special%20Charactersfor
understanding what characters need to be escaped for your queries.
