I recently upgraded (from 1.2) to the latest build (1.3.1) and found that my range queries no longer work.
Here's what a simple query against my index yields: pub_date:20021109 yields 133 hits pub_date:20021110 yields 225 hits pub_date:20021111 yields 144 hits With 1.2RC5 and 1.2, here's how the range query works: pub_date:[20021109 - 20021111] yields 502 hits (note space on both sides of dash) With 1.3 (nightly build as of 11/11/02), here's how the range query now works: pub_date:[20021109 - 20021111] yields 0 hits (note space on both sides of dash) pub_date:[20021109- 20021111] yields 369 hits (note space only following the dash) pub_date:[20021109-20021111] yields 0 hits (note no spaces on either side of dash) Also, note that pub_date:]20021109- 20021110] does *not* include the hits for 20021109 as it did previously. The errors (ParseExceptions) generated were these: Was expecting one of: "TO" ... <RANGEIN_QUOTED> ... <RANGEIN_GOOP> ... , Encountered "]" at line 1, column 27. Was expecting one of: "TO" ... <RANGEIN_QUOTED> ... <RANGEIN_GOOP> ... Has the syntax changed, or is this a bug? Regards, Terry
