Error description

  • In IBM WebSphere Commerce, while performing a SOLR search, the
following error is encountered:

[3/17/11 15:29:39:791 EDT] 00000085 SolrCore E
org.apache.solr.common.SolrException log
org.apache.solr.common.SolrException:
org.apache.lucene.queryParser.ParseException: Cannot parse '(
+productset_id:(( +*:* +( +*:* --50000))) +*:*)': Encountered "
"-" "- "" at line 1, column 34.
Was expecting one of:
"(" ...
"*" ...
<QUOTED> ...
<TERM> ...
<PREFIXTERM> ...
<WILDTERM> ...
"[" ...
"{" ...
<NUMBER> ...
<TERM> ...
"*" ...

This problem will only occur if negative primary keys are used.
Typically, negative primary keys are reserved for internal IBM
use, custom code should be changed to not utilize negative
primary keys.
