Aro, thanks for your interest and response. I'm using the "stock" definition in the supplied config.xml, as follows:
<fieldType name="text_en" class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100"> <analyzer type="index"> <tokenizer class="solr.StandardTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.StopFilterFactory" ignoreCase="true" words="stopwords.txt" enablePositionIncrements="true"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/><filter class="solr.EnglishPossessiveFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.KeywordMarkerFilterFactory" protected="protwords.txt"/> <filter class="solr.KStemFilterFactory"/> </analyzer> <analyzer type="query"> <tokenizer class="solr.StandardTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.SynonymFilterFactory" synonyms="synonyms.txt" ignoreCase="true" expand="true"/> <filter class="solr.StopFilterFactory" ignoreCase="true" words="stopwords.txt" enablePositionIncrements="true"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.EnglishPossessiveFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.KeywordMarkerFilterFactory" protected="protwords.txt"/> <filter class="solr.KStemFilterFactory"/></analyzer> </fieldType> When viewing the debug output of the results, I have: <str name=...(The document's unique index field is here)...> 2.097683 = (MATCH) sum of: 1.072057 = (MATCH) weight(text:schedul in 1595), product of: 0.75786966 = queryWeight(text:schedul), product of: 4.355735 = idf(docFreq=59, maxDocs=1720) 0.17399353 = queryNorm 1.4145664 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(text:schedul in 1595), product of: 1.7320508 = tf(termFreq(text:schedul)=3) 4.355735 = idf(docFreq=59, maxDocs=1720) 0.1875 = fieldNorm(field=text, doc=1595) 1.0256261 = (MATCH) weight(text:pickup in 1595), product of: 0.652406 = queryWeight(text:pickup), product of: 3.7495992 = idf(docFreq=109, maxDocs=1720) 0.17399353 = queryNorm 1.5720673 = (MATCH) fieldWeight(text:pickup in 1595), product of: 2.236068 = tf(termFreq(text:pickup)=5) 3.7495992 = idf(docFreq=109, maxDocs=1720) 0.1875 = fieldNorm(field=text, doc=1595) </str> The stem "schedul" is an indication that stemming has occurred on the query. However, you gave me an idea; I HAVE changed what I thought were small things to the config.xml without reindexing the content corpus. It's possible I shot myself in the proverbial foot if I changed to "text_en" without reindexing. I'll do that shortly (meaning tomorrow morning) and will report back with my results. Appreciate the interest... Tim
