Are you using the edismax query parser (which permits lower case "and" and
"or" operators)? If so, there is a bug with parenthesized sub-queries. If
you have a left parenthesis immediately before a field name (which you do in
this case) the query fails. The short-term workaround is to place a space
between the left parenthesis and the field name.

Hi - thanks for the response. Yes I have tried with parentheses, to group as
you suggest.
It doesn't make a difference. But now I'm thinking there's something
completely odd - and I wonder if it's necessary to use a special
search-handler to achieve what I want.
For example, if I execute
q=(skcode:2021051 AND flength:368.0)
I get no results. If I omit the parentheses, I get 1 result. (Let alone
trying to combine several Boolean clauses).

Hi,
You should use parantheses, have you tried that?
q=(skcode:2021051 and flength:368.0) or (skcode:2021049 and
ent_no:1040970907)

Hi
Can someone please give me some help with a simple query.
If I search
q=skcode:2021051 and flength:368.0
I get 1 document returned (doc A)
If I search
q=skcode:2021049 and ent_no:1040970907
I get 1 document returned (doc B)
But if I search
q=skcode:2021051 and flength:368.0 or skcode:2021049 and ent_no:1040970907
I get no documents returned.
Shouldn't I get both docA and docB?
Thanks,
Peter
