Here are the queries In my code I have: System.out.println("luceneQuery: " + luceneQuery); query = MultiFieldQueryParser.parse(luceneQuery.toString(), IndexerExternal.CARTABLE, IndexerExternal.getAnalyzer()); System.out.println("query: " + query);
That produces this: luceneQuery: ( (name:np-pandock*^1 nametxt:np-pandock*^1) (name:"np-pandock*"^1 nametxt:"np-pandock*"^1) ) query: (name:np-pandock* nametxt:np-pandock*) (name:"np pandock" nametxt:"np pandock") I am using StandardAnalyzer I've had problems with luke in the past not being able to read the files. So I don't use it. But given the queries below, the data is there, right? If "pandock" works, wouldn't "np-pandock" ... if it didn't work completely, that'd be fine. but it returns two.. why those two? That's the part I'm not getting.

Second question: Have you tried using query.toString() to see how the query parses? If so, you should post the results. Third question: Have you used Luke to examine your index, to see what's actually in there (which may surprise you depending upon what analyzers you are using). You can also see how queries parse using various analyzers. Which may also surprise you.
