Hmm, that stack trace doesn't align w/ the boost factor. What was your request? I think there might be something else wrong here. > Do you know any other technique to reset to some fixed constant value, all > the query-result's scores? > Each query result should obtain the same score. > Any suggestion? The ConstantScoreQuery or a Filter should do this. You could do something like: &q=*:*&fq=<the real query>, as in &q=*:*&fq=field:foo -Grant -------------------------- Grant Ingersoll http://lucenerevolution.org Apache Lucene/Solr Conference, Boston Oct 7-8
