[jira] Commented: (SOLR-525) NullPointerException with no query or empty query

["Lars Kotthoff (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-525?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12584374#action_12584374 ] 

Lars Kotthoff commented on SOLR-525:
------------------------------------

Ah, sorry, didn't find that issue. I agree with the original thread reporting this problem that returning a 400 and indicating that a parameter is missing is a better solution.

> When calling the search URL with no query or an empty query (i.e.  http://localhost:8080/solr/select/ or http://localhost:8080/solr/select/?q=), Solr throws a NullPointerException. The value for the query string returned by the SolrParams object is null, but QueryComponent tries to process it.
> I encountered this bug because of a bug in my application calling the search URL, but arguably the response should be more constructive.
