Why a phrase is getting searched against default fields in solr

This might be a very silly question but i want to know why this is happening. If i am using edismax query parser in solr and passing query something like below

q=IPhone5&wt=xml&edismax=true&qf=Product-Name-0^100&bq=(Product-Rating-0%3A7^300+OR+Product-Rating-0%3A8^400+OR+Product-Rating-0%3A9^500+OR+Product-Rating-0%3A10^600+OR+Product-Rating-0%3A*)

Then why it is searching in default fields ? As i am specifying qf,it should search in the fields specified in qf parameter and boost those documents which has a higher rating.

Please correct me if my understanding is wrong. Note:-I am using SOLR 4.0 Alpha

Thanks, Pragyanshis

Solution

  • Made some changes with the RequestHandler like below.

    1.Added defType = edismax

    <str name="defType">edismax</str>

    2.Removed default field .

    Now it is working as i expected.
