I have a solr 6.6.0 instance running and have indexed some docs - PDF and HTML. Previously I had solr 4 and searching with highlighting results was fine. Unfortunately this (default) behaviour seems to have disappeared in v6. The setup is the default one mentioned by the original solr tutorial. I played around with a lot of GET parameters but cannot geht highlighted content. I appreciate any hint or tipp to get this running. Am I missing some config changes or parameters?
E.g.
http://serv1:8983/solr/gettingstarted/select?wt=json&indent=true&q=betreten&hl=true&hl.method=unified
gives

Thank you!
Highlighter generally analyze stored text on the fly in order to highlight.
In your schema please check if _text_ is stored or not. If it is managed schema then _text_ may not be stored. Please check following _text_ config in managed-schema or schema.xml
<field name="_text_" type="text_general" multiValued="true" indexed="true" stored="false"/>
stored=false indicates that contents of _text_ are not stored. If you set stored="true" then _text_ will be stored and will be available for highlight.
Note: After changing schema.xml or managed-schema files,
