It's an internal error that is not supposed to occur. Could you continue on the java-dev list? SpanNearQuery is not supposed to operate on a single argument, at least that's what I thought when I wrote the bug fix code that throws this exception. Does the exception go away when you replace the first spanNear (the one with the single [text:interesting] with a SpanTermQuery ? It's also possible that the code cannot handle the two identical text:interesting arguments. It's probably good to have a test case for this. Could you extend the exception with the document number and maybe a position within the document to try and get to the original text that causes this exception, and use that to file a bug report?
