Hopefully this won't be too hard to follow. Please let me know if I need
to clarify something.
I have two types of Nodes (let's call them LizsNode and LizsNodeDesc)
that each have an attribute named ID. LizsNode uses a namespace (tns).
I have had the LizsNode data around for months, but the LizNodeDesc are
all new. I have added an index defined as "*...@id" recently.
With the index defined, when use the xpath query
"/DatabaseRecord[//tns:lizsno...@id='1234']]" the node is returned
correctly. But when I use the query
"/DatabaseRecord[//lizsnodede...@id='1234']]" 99.999% of the time
nothing is returned. Occasionally the right result is returned. Also if
I query for /DatabaseRecord[//LizsNodeDesc]" all those nodes are
returned and I can see my ID is correct.
If I remove the index all queries return correctly, but its way too slow.
Also, I have one machine that this seemed to occur on but I deleted the
entire collection and the newly created one is fine. I cannot do this to
my production server however.
Any ideas what is causing this? I have confirmed the issue by querying
via commandline and via Java code.
