Do you know how to set about solr not present _"str"? - solr

I used Apache Solr to indexing database, the problem is created field named "*_str". someone told update.autoCreateFields:true change false. But it still works!. please help me and my memory :(
In java, for example, I used SolrInputDocument.addField("A", valueOfA), SolrInputDocument.addField("B", valueOfB).
Then, Solr present
"A" : "vauleofA"
"B" : "vauleofB"
"A_str" : "vauleofA"
"B_str" : "vauleofB"

In a standard Solr 7 installation when Solr automatically adds a field (e.g. when update.autoCreateFields is set to true) you will get these _str fields also added by default. For example if you add the following document to Solr:
[
{ "id": "test01", "somefield": "hello world" }
]
You will see two fields in your schema somefield and somefield_str. I believe the configuration for the additional _str field is defined in the solrconfig.xml file under (look for AddSchemaFieldsUpdateProcessorFactory) -- but I am not sure about this.
If you set autoCreateFields to false after you have imported the document that created those fields, those fields will remain in your schema (and on the documents that already have them.) You will need to recreate your schema in order to get rid of them.

Solr indexing fails over media_black_point

In front i want to say that i dont have much experience with Solr.
Problem we are facing, we only want to index content of files and not want to add dynamic fields, is this possible and if so how?
Problem 2: If Problem one is a No, how would we exclude media_black_point,
media_white_point with indexing?
Error code where Solr trips:
{"responseHeader":{"status":400,"QTime":149},"error":{"metadata":["error-class","org.apache.solr.common.SolrException","root-error-class","org.apache.solr.common.SolrException"],"msg":"incompatible dimension (2) and values (313/1000 329/1000). Only 0 values specified","code":400}}
Dynamic Fields and schemaless mode are both there to catch fields you did not declare explicitly. If neither are used, the assumption is that every field you send to Solr (including output from extract handler that generates a Solr document internally) needs to be explicitly mapped. This helps to avoid spelling errors and other unexpected edge-cases.
If you want to ignore all the fields you did not define explicitly, you can use dynamic field with stored/indexed/docValues all set to false. Solr ships with one example out of the box, you just need to uncomment it.
The other option is to ignore specific fields. You can do that by defining a custom UpdateRequestProcessor chain (or individual URP in the latest Solr) and using IgnoreFieldUpdateProcessorFactory with your specific field name or a name pattern.

Solr fields mapping?

I am indexing documents into solr from a source. At source, for each document, i have some associated properties which i am indexing & fetching into solr.
What i am doing is i am mapping some fields from source properties with solr schema fields. But i could see couple of extra fields in solr logs which i am not mapping. While querying in solr admin UI, i could see only mapped fields.
E.g. In below logs, i am using only content_name & content content_modifier but i could see Template fields also.
INFO - 2014-09-18 12:07:47.185; org.apache.solr.update.processor.LogUpdateProcessor; [collection1] webapp=/solr path=/update/extract params={literal.content_name=1_.000&literal.content_modifier=System&literal.Template={8ad4d8f0-93a7-4941-9657-cf3706f00409} {add=[1_.000 (1479581071766978560)]} 0 0
So whats happening here? Will solr index only mapped fields and skip rest of unmapped ones? Or will solr index all fields including mapped & non-mapped but on admin UI , it will show only mapped fields?
Please suggest.
Your question is defined by what your solrconfig and schema say because you can configure it any way you want. Here is how it works for the example schema for Solr 4.10:
1) In solrconfig.xml, the handler use "uprefix" parameter to map all fields NOT in schema to a dynamic field ignored_*
2) In schema.xml, that dynamic field has type ignored
3) Type ignored (in the same file) is defined as stored=false and indexed=false. Which means do not complain if you get one of fields with matching pattern, but do nothing with, literally ignore.
So, if you don't like that, you can modify any part of that pipeline. The easiest test would be to change the dynamic field to use type string and reindex. Then, you should see the rest of the fields.

/select with 'q' parameter does not work

Whenever i query with q=: it shows all the documents but when i query with q=programmer 0 docs found.(contents is the default search field)
my schema has: id(unique),author,title,contents fields
Also query works fine for:
q=author:"Value" or q=title:"my book" etc, only for contents field no results.
Also when i query using spell checker(/spell?q=programmer) output shows spelling suggestions for this word,when 'programmer' is the right word and present in many documents.
I referred the example docs for configurations.
All of a sudden i am getting this,initially it worked fine.
I guess there some problem only in the contents field,but cannot figure it out.
Is it because indexes are not created properly for contents field?
(I am using solr 4.2 on Windows 7 with tomcat as webserver)
Please help.Thanks a lot in advance.
Are you sure you set the default search field? The reason you have this problem might be because you didn't set the <defaultSearchField> field in your schema.xml file. This is why "q=author:value" works while q=WHATEVER doesn't.
The Is used by Solr when parsing queries to
identify which field name should be searched in queries where an
explicit field name has not been used.
But also consider this:
The is used by Solr when parsing queries to
identify which field name should be searched in queries where an
explicit field name has not been used. It is preferable to not use or
rely on this setting; instead the request handler or query LocalParams
for a search should specify the default field(s) to search on. This
setting here can be omitted and it is being considered for
deprecation.
Do you have any data in your instance. try q=*:* and see what it returns. "for" is a stop word, may be it was filtered out. Look for something else as value to test.

Update a new field to existing document

is there possibility to update a new field to an existing document?
For example:
There is an document with several fields, e.g.
ID=99999
Field1:text
Field2:text
This document is already in the index, now I want to insert a new field to this document WITHOUT the old data:
ID=99999
Field3:text
For now, the old document will be deleted and a new document with the ID will be created. So if I now search for the ID 99999 the result will be:
ID=99999
Field3:text
I read this at the Solr Wiki
How can I update a specific field of an existing document?
I want update a specific field in a document, is that possible? I only need to index one field for >a specific document. Do I have to index all the document for this?
No, just the one document. Let's say you have a CMS and you edit one document. You will need to re-index this document only by using the the add solr statement for the whole document (not one field only).
In Lucene to update a document the operation is really a delete followed by an add. You will need >to add the complete document as there is no such "update only a field" semantics in Lucene.
So is there any solution for this? Will this function be implemented in a further version (I currently use 3.6.0). As a workaround, I thought about writing a script or an application, which will collect the existing fields, add the new field and update the whole document. But I think this will suffer performance. Do you have any other ideas?
Best regards
I have 2 answers for you (both more or less bad):
To update filed with in document in Solr you have to reindex whole document (to update Field3 within document ID:99999 you have to reindex that document with values for all fields)
In Solr 4 they implemented feature like that, but they have a condition: all fields have to be stored, not just indexed. What is happening that is they are using stored values and reindexing document in the background. If you are interested, there is nice article about it: http://solr.pl/en/2012/07/09/solr-4-0-partial-documents-update/ This solution have obvious flaw and that is size of index when you are storing all fields.
I hope that this will help you with your problem. If you have some more questions, please ask
It is possible to do this in Solr 4. E.g. Consider the following document
{
"id": "book123",
"name" : "Solr Rocks"
}
In order to add an author field to the document the field value would be a json object with "set" attribute and the field value
$ curl http://localhost:8983/solr/update -H 'Content-type:application/json' -d '
[
{"id" : "book123",
"author" : {"set":"The Community"}
}
]'
Your new document
$ curl http://localhost:8983/solr/get?id=book123
will be
{
"doc" : {
"id" : "book123",
"name" : "Solr Rocks"
"author": "The Community"
}
}
Set will add or replace the author field. Along with set you also have the option to increment(inc) and adding(add)
From Solr 4 onwards you can update a field in solr ....no need to reindex the entire indexes .... various modifiers are supported like ....
set – set or replace a particular value, or remove the value if null is specified as the new value
add – adds an additional value to a list
remove – removes a value (or a list of values) from a list
removeregex – removes from a list that match the given Java regular expression
inc – increments a numeric value by a specific amount (use a negative value to decrement)
example :
document
{
"id": "1",
"name" : "Solr"
"views" : "2"
}
now update with
$ curl http://localhost:8983/solr/demo/update -d '
[
{"id" : "1",
"author" : {"set":"Neal Stephenson"},
"views" : {"inc":3},
}
]'
will result into
{
"id": "1",
"name" : "Solr"
"views" : "5"
"author" : "Neal Stephenson"
}

Field Types in Solr

I had indexed data into Solr and add data into "name","features" field.
So, when I get data using java code I use "getFieldValue("name")" it returns the name into java variable.
When I use java code to get "name" values, I got null values.
When I look into Solr Admin Page: I had seen
"Features" field in Solr has properties "Indexed, Tokenized, Stored, Multivalued".
How can I get the values of Features into variables and print that.
Kindly ask me to further clarify my question.
My best guess is that getFieldValue() returns a Collection for multi-valued fields but you are expecting a String.
It may help if you can post the full code snippet you are using.
