Viewing query debug explanation with dismax and multicore

[sara motahari <sa...@yahoo.com>]

Hi All,

I am trying to debug my queries and see how scoring is done. I have 6 cores and 
send the quesy to 6 shards and it's dismax handler (with search on various 
fields with different boostings). I enable debug, and view source but I'm unable 
to see the explanations. I'm returning ID and score as the "fl" field. Am I 
supposed to retun something else to be able to see the explanation? or is it 
because it's multi-core?

Did you try with filterquery?

Hi all,

I am using a dismax request handler with vrious fieds that it searches, but I 
also want to enable the users to select a category from a drop-down list 
and only get the results that belong to that category. It seems I can't use a 
nested query with dismax as the first one and standard as the nested one? Is 
there another way to do this?

Thread Hijacking on Mailing Lists

When starting a new discussion on a mailing list, please do not reply to 
an existing message, instead start a fresh email.  Even if you change the 
subject line of your email, other mail headers still track which thread 
you replied to and your question is "hidden" in that thread and gets less 
attention.   It makes following discussions in the mailing list archives 
particularly difficult.

I guess so. I didn't know I could use it with dismax I'll try. thanks Ahmet.

you'll need to provide us with more details -- what does your query URL 
look like? what does your request handler config look like? what does the 
response look like? (does it even have a debug section)

FWIW: doing a distributed query across the "example" setup from the 3x 
branch and the trunk i was able to see score explanations.

: supposed to retun something else to be able to see the explanation? or is it 
: because it's multi-core?

FYI: a terminology clarification: "Multi-core" is a term used to describe 
a single solr instance running multiple SolrCores (ie: using solr.xml) ... 
using the shards param is a refered to as "distributed search" ... they 
are orthoginal concepts.  you can do a distributed search across 
several solr instances that are not using multi-core, or you can 
query a core in a multi-core instance, or you can do a 
distributed search of several cores, some or all of which may be 
running as part or multi-core solr instances.
