List,
I've stumbled upon an issue with the deduplication mechanism. It either deletes all documents or does nothing at all and it depends on the overwriteDupes setting, resp. true and false. I use a slightly modified configuration: <updateRequestProcessorChain name="dedupe"> <processor class="org.apache.solr.update.processor.SignatureUpdateProcessorFactory"> <bool name="enabled">true</bool> <str name="signatureField">sig</str> <bool name="overwriteDupes">true</bool> <str name="fields">content</str> <str name="signatureClass">org.apache.solr.update.processor.Lookup3Signature</str> </processor> <processor class="solr.LogUpdateProcessorFactory" /> <processor class="solr.RunUpdateProcessorFactory" /> </updateRequestProcessorChain> <field name="sig" type="string" stored="true" indexed="false" multiValued="true" /> After importing new documents i (only with overwriteDupes=false) can clearly see the correct signatures. Most documents have a distinct signature and some share the same because the content field's value is identical for those documents. Anyway, why does it delete all my documents? Any clues? The wiki is not very helpful on this subject. Cheers. Markus Jelsma - Technisch Architect - Buyways BV http://www.linkedin.com/in/markus17 050-8536620 / 06-50258350
