In the data driven configset, autoguessing text fields as the “strings" field type is intended to enable faceting. The catch-all _text_ field enables search on all fields, but this may not be a good alternative to fielded search. I’m going to start working on updating the quick start tutorial

Thanks for that. I totally get how it is with complicated, open source projects. And from experience, I realize that beginner-level documentation is really hard, especially with these kinds of projects: by the time you get to documentation, everybody involved is so expert in all the details that

I totally empathize about the sense of wasted time. On Solr in particular I pulled my hair out for months - and I had access to people who had been using it for over two years!!! For what it's worth - this is kind of how it goes with most open source projects in my experience. It's painful -

Second possibility: You've somehow indexed fields as "string" type rather than one of the text based fieldTypes. "string" types are not tokenized, thus a field with "My dog has fleas" will fail to find "My". It'll even not match "my dog has fleas" (note capital "M"). That appears to be the issue.

I looked at the managed-schema and it does appear that fields like "name" were not indexed (if I'm reading this correctly): Not sure if this is because some step was missed, the post command was done incorrectly, or what. Tutorial says nothing about schemas or indexes. For reference, here's the

If your fields are of type string, you have to match them exactly. But the general queries are probably going against _text_ or similar which copyFields context of all other fields without storing but tokenize with its own text rules. Check df parameter in solrconfig.xml or params.json.

Re: Tutorial not working for me

My bet: the fields (look in managed_schema or, possibly schema.xml) has stored="true" and indexed="false" set for the fields in question. Pretty much everyone takes a few passes before this really makes sense. "stored" means you see the results returned, "indexed" must be true before you can
