Need some quick help diagnosing query

2012-03-07 Thread Donald Organ 
Right now i am doing the following:

qf=name^1.75 codeTXT^1.75 cat_search^1.5 description^0.8 brand^5.0
cat_search^0.8
fl=code,score
defType=dismax
q=whitney brothers carts


 if i change it to the following  then i get results:

qf=name^1.75 codeTXT^1.75 cat_search^1.5 description^0.8 brand^5.0
cat_search^0.8
fl=code,score
defType=dismax
q=whitney brothers


So why is the first query returning 0 results?

Simply your collection does contain a doc having all these three terms? Try 
different mm values.

Would this also be affected if one of the fields that contains that term is
a  defined as solr.StrField   where as most of the other fields are defined
as solr.TextField?

It could be. string fields are not analyzed. For example, one whitespace can 
prevent match.  Cards and cards wont match too. (lowercase)

Ok looks like its time to setup some copyFields.  I will try that and see
if that help and point my query at the solr.TextField's
