Hi, I created the following fieldType in schema.xml
<fieldType name="text_char_filter" class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100"> <analyzer> <charFilter class="solr.MappingCharFilterFactory" mapping="mapping.txt"/> <tokenizer class="solr.StandardTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> </analyzer> </fieldType> mapping.txt contains the following (replacing dot with white space) "." => " " and using the above in the field <field name="text" type="text_char_filter" indexed="true" required="true" stored="false" /> 1. in the analysis page on the solr UI (http://localhost:8984/solr/#/tenant1-core-1/analysis) i entered the following in query tab --host1-dev* i got the following output host1, dev 2. I inserted a document where 'text' contains the value host1-dev.eng.abc.com 3. When i go to the query page, (http://localhost:8984/solr/#/tenant1-core-1/query) and using this one for the query text:host1-dev* ( and enabled debug) am not getting the row i inserted in above step. also, noticed the "parsedquery_toString":"text:host1-dev*", It should have been text:host and text:dev* can you please guide on how can i make the query work. Query output (with debug enabled) { "responseHeader":{ "status":0, "QTime":1, "params":{ "q":"text:host1-dev*", "indent":"on", "wt":"json", "debugQuery":"on", "_":"1502149448777"}}, "response":{"numFound":0,"start":0,"docs":[] }, "debug":{ "rawquerystring":"text:host1-dev*", "querystring":"text:host1-dev*", "parsedquery":"text:host1-dev*", "parsedquery_toString":"text:host1-dev*", "explain":{}, "QParser":"LuceneQParser", "timing":{ "time":1.0, "prepare":{ "time":0.0, "query":{ "time":0.0}, "facet":{ "time":0.0}, "facet_module":{ "time":0.0}, "mlt":{ "time":0.0}, "highlight":{ "time":0.0}, "stats":{ "time":0.0}, "expand":{ "time":0.0}, "terms":{ "time":0.0}, "debug":{ "time":0.0}}, "process":{ "time":0.0, "query":{ "time":0.0}, "facet":{ "time":0.0}, "facet_module":{ "time":0.0}, "mlt":{ "time":0.0}, "highlight":{ "time":0.0}, "stats":{ "time":0.0}, "expand":{ "time":0.0}, "terms":{ "time":0.0}, "debug":{ "time":0.0}}}}} Thanks, D.Radhakrishnan
