Well it appears to be some issue with the analysis. You can check the http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/analysis.jsp (the admin page of your instance, the analysis section) to see how the analysis is applied and see the end result of "aaaaaaaaaaa" You should work with the index and the query analysis too see if what you wanted is actually what is being performed in Solr.
If you search for "food", does Solr find the correct documents? Does your other instance (the one that works fine) contains the exact same documents? Are the indexes identical? remember that after applying changes to the index analysis chain you must re index all the documents again, otherwise, the already indexed documents will have the terms with the previous analysis applied, restarting solr after changes in the indexing analysis chain is not enough.
