: the queryparser first splits on whitespace.
FWIW: robert is refering to the LuceneQParser, and it also applies to the
DismaxQParser ... whitespace is considered markup in those parsers unless
it's escaped or quoted.
The FieldQParser may make more sense for your usecase - or you may need a
custom QParser (hard to tell)

...you are using the DisMaxQParser, but evidently you haven't configured
the qf or pf fields, so you are getting a query that is completley empty.
