It's hard to say, but two things will help you track this down. 1> get a copy of Luke to examine your index (which you may have already). 2> Query.toString is your friend. It'll show you exactly what the parsed query looks like. It may be obvious when you see that output what the problem is, but if not you can try moving the parsed code into the search tab of Luke and glean more info.
Where did you get this data: "<itno:00000002 >,"? It's kind of interesting that there are spaces AFTER the 000000002. What analyzer did you use when you indexed it and can you guarantee that it's the same analyzer that you used to parse the query? And one aside. Opening and closing a searcher for each request is very wasteful. Is closing your searcher just an artifact of cutting/pasting? If not, you haven't opened the searcher in the snippet either <G>...
