Hey,
I'm running solr (3.5.0.2011.11.30.16.37.06) and have encountered what
I think is a bug with the boost function (bf) parameter.
I've used sunspot (for use of solr with rails) which allows managing
dynamic fields, which by default creates fields like
"dynamicfield:value1","dynamicfield:value2", though using the :
character in the field name, which needs to be escaped.
If I use a query which includes "q=dynamicfield\:value1:6", everything
works fines and matches are found.
However, if I use the bf field with bf=dynamicfield\:value1, I get an
error message "undefined field dynamicfield", the same without
escaping the :
Should I file a bug report?
Best,
Nils
