In Luke you searched for a field named "contentlength", but in your C# code you searched for a field named "length". If this is not a typographical error in your post, this is the most likely the problem.

Hi All I'm currently testing a lucene.net index for a website. The Luke search utility and my C# code give me different results for searches. There's probably a simple explanation, but I can't find it. The idea here is to check for changes using the url and the content length. C# code: (searcher is Lucene.Net.Search.IndexSearcher instance) public bool IsIndexed(Uri url, int stringcontent) { int foundCount = 0; Lucene.Net.Search.BooleanQuery bq = new Lucene.Net.Search.BooleanQuery(); bq.Add(new Lucene.Net.Search.TermQuery(new Lucene.Net.Index.Term("url", "\"" + url.AbsoluteUri + "\"")), Lucene.Net.Search.BooleanClause.Occur.MUST); bq.Add(new Lucene.Net.Search.TermQuery(new Lucene.Net.Index.Term("length", stringcontent.ToString())), Lucene.Net.Search.BooleanClause.Occur.MUST); Lucene.Net.Search.Hits hits = searcher.Search(bq); foundCount = hits.Length(); return foundCount > 0; } A search like: +url:"http://some.website.com/"; +contentlength:1234 Finds exactly one item in Luke (the expected behaviour, if the url is indexed and has that length exactly), but returns nothing in my code above. They are both using the same index. Any ideas? BTW, great project, thank you!
