Hello,
Thank you all for your help. There was indeed a property which was not
set right in schema.xml:
omitTermFreqAndPositions="true"
After changing it to false phrase lookup started working OK.
Thanks,
M

Show us the field and field type from your schema.
Likely you are "omitting" position info for the field, and the field
type has "autoGeneratePhraseQueries="true"" - the ngram analyzer
generates a sequence of terms for a single source term and then the
query parser generates a PhraseQuery for that sequence, but that
requires position info in the index but you have omitted them. That's
one theory.
So, if that theory is correct, either retain position info by getting
rid of the "omit", or remove the autoGeneratePhraseQueries.

If you consider what n-grams do this should make sense to you.
Consider the following piece of data:
White iPod
If the field is fed through a bigram filter (n-gram with size of 2)
the resulting token stream would appear as such:
wh hi it te
ip po od
The usual use of n-grams is to match those partial tokens, essentially
giving you a great deal of power in creating non-wildcard partial
matches. How you use this is up to your imagination, but one easy use
is in partial matches in autosuggest features.
I can't speak for the intent behind the way it's coded, but it makes a
great deal of sense to me that positional data would be seen as
unnecessary since the intent of n-grams typically doesn't collide with
phrase searches. If you need both behaviors it's far better to use
copyField and have one field dedicated to standard tokenization and
token filters, and another field for n-grams.
I hope that's useful to you.

Hello,
Could someone explain (or perhaps provide a documentation link) what
does the following error mean:
"field "title_ngram" was indexed without position data; cannot run
PhraseQuery"
I'll do some more searching online, I was just wondering if anyone
has encountered this error before, and what the possible solution
might be. I've recently upgraded my version of solr from 3.6.0 to
4.5.0, I'm not sure if this has any bearing or not.
Thanks,
