Two things: 1> what version of Solr are you using? If it's prior to 3.6, then the bits that handle applying lowercaseFilter to wildcards isn't in the code.
2> what do you see if you add &debug=query? I just tried it with your analysis chain and it seemed to work. Did you completely blow your index away when trying this? I did get into a state where my terms didn't show up. When you change the schema, sometimes some information about the fields is written into the index and is incompatible with later changes. By "completely blow away" I mean stop Solr rm -rf blah/collection/data start Solr reindex test Best, Erick On Wed, Oct 1, 2014 at 10:10 AM, waynemailinglist <waynemailingli...@gmail.com> wrote: > I'm still stuck on this actually.
