CyAnalyzer:
[year] [2005] [yahoo123]
the analyzer I am using doesn t discard numbers but I can t find them. any ideas??

If that is the analyzer you are using for indexing and you are using a tokenized field type then those tokens will be indexed as you see there.


My only theory now is that you've got something misconfigured. Back up and index a very simple single document index to the filesystem and check it out with Luke. Send us that indexing code if you do not see numbers there.

the .toString() looks excactly like the query I enter: if I search for
"yahoo AND 200" it returns 0 hits. I am sure there are documents that
have 200 hundreds in them. The analyzer I am using is a custom
analyzer that has a list of stop words. I don t know much about the
way data was indexed, I am just developing an aplication to search
using the analyzer that was used while indexing.

Try the tips here: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-lucene/AnalysisParalysis - you need to analyze your analyzer and ensure what you think was indexed actually was. Also, look into using Luke - http://www.getopt.org/luke/ - to see what makes your index tick.

my concern now is if there is an error with the way the indexing was
do I have to reindex the documents?

Yes. That's just the nature of how it works. Getting the analysis right is important stuff, and if you didn't index it, you can't search for it!

Feel free to share more details of your analyzer, and we'd be happy to
"analyze" it.

thanks

any suggestions??

What is the .toString of the Query object instance returned from QueryParser? What Analyzer are you using? How did you index the field(s) being queried?
