Keep empty fields in 9.5

[Carsten Klement <ko...@carsten-klement.de>]

Hi,

we are currently updating to 9.5 (from 6.6) and have the problem that empty fields are not stored in the solr-index.

Is it possible to keep this empty fields?

 

We transmit the documents via http in json structure.

 

Thanks,

Carsten

Storing a space, whitespace or empty string for a field is generally a bad
practice. Doing so makes it impossible to query for documents that don't
contain the field using the normal syntax (i.e. q=*:* -myField:*)
