The example configs in newer versions that use "schemaless" mode, which
include basic_configs and data_driven_schema_configs, include an update
processor that removes fields with a blank value.

If you remove this line from solrconfig.xml, it should cure that problem:



If it were me, I would completely remove all references to
"add-unknown-fields-to-the-schema", or use sample_techproducts_configs
as the starting point for my configuration, because it doesn't have that
update processor.

Thanks,
Shawn

Empty value fields not indexed

[Zheng Lin Edwin Yeo]

Hi,

I'm using Solr 6.4.2, and I realized that for those fields which has no
values, the field name is not index into Solr.

It was working fine in the previous version.

Any reason for this or any settings which needs to be done so that the
field name can be indexed even though it's value is empty?
