The simplest Solr DIH indexing - solr

Question

I'm trying to index data from a database in Solr using the DIH.
So I have modified the two config files as follows:
solrconfig.xml :
<requestHandler name="/dataimport"
class="org.apache.solr.handler.dataimport.DataImportHandler">
<lst name="defaults">
<str name="config">data-config.xml</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>
data-config.xml :
<dataConfig>
<dataSource type="JdbcDataSource" driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test" user="root" password="****"/>
<document>
<entity name="source_scellee" query="select * from source_scellee">
</entity>
</document>
</dataConfig>
source_scellee being the name of my table on my test database. It contains many fields.
Obviously, I'm trying to run nothing else than a simple test. When running http://localhost:8983/solr/dataimport?command=full-import&clean=false&commit=true I get the following result :
<str name="Full Dump Started">2012-01-27 12:27:01</str><str name="">Indexing completed. Added/Updated: 4 documents. Deleted 0 documents.</str><str name="Committed">2012-01-27 12:27:02</str>
<str name="**Total Documents Failed**">4</str>
Besides no warning nor error on the server logs. 4 is my number of records inside table "source_scellee". But it says all documents fail.
If I run a query from http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/
no results appear, at all !! How can I solve it ?
(":" shows no results)
Thank you for your help!!!
----edit---
I have added these lines to my schema.xml :
<field name="ID" type="int" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="reference_catalogue" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="reference_capsule" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="organisme_certificateur" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="reference_certificat" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="duree_d_utilisation" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="activite_nominale" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="activite_minimale" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="activite_maximale" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="coffret" type="boolean" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="dispositif_medical" type="boolean" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="forme_speciale" type="boolean" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="exemption_cpa" type="boolean" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="marquage_ce" type="boolean" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="element_cible" type="boolean" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
However the result is still the same: no results when querying (I tried to restart solr, and to re-index all also)
------second edit---
I have tried the dynamic import
Now my data-config.xml looks like this :
<document>
<entity name="source_scellee" query="select * from source_scellee">
<field column="ID" name="ID_i" />
<field column="reference_catalogue" name="reference_catalogue_s" />
<field column="reference_capsule" name="reference_capsule_s" />
<field column="organisme_certificateur" name="organisme_certificateur_s" />
<field column="reference_certificat" name="reference_certificat_s" />
<field column="duree_d_utilisation" name="duree_d_utilisation_s" />
<field column="activite_nominale" name="activite_nominale_s" />
<field column="activite_minimale" name="activite_minimale_s" />
<field column="activite_maximale" name="activite_maximale_s" />
<field column="coffret" name="coffret_b" />
<field column="dispositif_medical" name="dispositif_medical_b" />
<field column="forme_speciale" name="forme_speciale_b" />
<field column="exemption_cpa" name="exemption_cpa_b" />
<field column="marquage_ce" name="marquage_ce_b" />
<field column="element_cible" name="element_cible_b" />
</entity>
</document>

Answer 1

1.) You can take a look to the statistics page to see, how much docs are indexed right now:
http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/stats.jsp
2.) The result of your search depends on your schema.xml, because there it's defined how docs are indexed/stored, which fields are processed and how searchs are handled on query time.
Please take a look at this file or post the field definition from the schema.xml and also the schema/design from your table source_scellee.
Does the columns and the fields have the same name?
//Edit: This should work, if coulmname and filedname are the same:
<document>
<entity name="source_scellee"
pk="ID"
query="select * from source_scellee">
</entity>
</document>
is having NULL values in data an issue ?
that depends on the destination field.
Are your running solr in an tomcat or someting like that?
Take a look in the Java EE Container output, like catalina.out or so.

Answer 2

I am pretty sure the issue lies in how the DIH is trying to map fields. Thanks for adding the information from your schema file... However, I believe that what you have done is added configuration that needs to be added separately to both the schema.xml and the data-config.xml for the DIH.
Based on the Full Import Example from the Solr Wiki, I would try the following.
schema.xml
<field name="ID" type="int" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="reference_catalogue" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="reference_capsule" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="date_de_creation" type="date" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="organisme_certificateur" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="reference_certificat" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="duree_d_utilisation" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="activite_nominale" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="activite_minimale" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="activite_maximale" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="coffret" type="int" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="dispositif_medical" type="int" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="forme_speciale" type="int" indexed="true" stored="true" />
<field name="exemption_cpa" type="int" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="marquage_ce" type="int" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
<field name="element_cible" type="int" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
data-config.xml
<dataConfig>
<dataSource type="JdbcDataSource" driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test" user="root" password="****"/>
<document>
<entity name="source_scellee" query="select * from source_scellee">
<field column="ID" name="ID"/>
<field column="reference_catalogue" name="reference_catalogue"/>
<field column="reference_capsule" name="reference_capsule"/>
<field column="date_de_creation" name="date_de_creation"/>
<field column="organisme_certificateur" name="organisme_certificateur"/>
<field column="reference_certificat" name="reference_certificat"/>
<field column="duree_d_utilisation" name="duree_d_utilisation"/>
<field column="activite_nominale" name="activite_nominale"/>
<field column="activite_minimale" name="activite_minimale"/>
<field column="activite_maximale" name="activite_maximale"/>
<field column="coffret" name="coffret"/>
<field column="dispositif_medical" name="dispositif_medical"/>
<field column="forme_speciale" name="forme_speciale"/>
<field column="exemption_cpa" name="exemption_cpa"/>
<field column="marquage_ce" name="marquage_ce"/>
<field column="element_cible" name="element_cible"/>
</entity>
</document>
</dataConfig>
There is a way to setup the schema.xml to dynamically add fields that it encounters by using some naming conventions. Please see the Dynamic Fields details in the Solr Wiki for more details and some examples of how this can be done.
