SolrJ GET operation does not send correct encoding
--------------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-1959
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1959
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Bug
Components: clients - java
Affects Versions: 1.4.1, Next
Reporter: Lance Norskog
The SolrJ query operation fails to set the character encoding when doing a GET.
It works when doing a POST.
The problem is that URLs are urlencoded with UTF-8 but the Content-type: header
is not set. I tested it with "Content-Type:text/plain;charset=utf-8" and that
worked. The Content-type header encoding defaults to ISO 8859-1.
The result is that SolrJ queries fail for any search with a character above
127. The work around is to use a POST query instead of a GET. I have not
searched for other places. So, change:
{code}
QueryResponse qr = CommonsHttpSolrServer.query(query);
{code}
to:
{code}
QueryResponse qr = CommonsHttpSolrServer.query(query, SolrRequest.METHOD.POST);
{code}
One quirk of this behavior is that url-bashing a query string with an ISO
8859-1 character (like an umlaut) works in a browser, but fails in a SolrJ
request.. It also searches correctly from the admin/index.jsp and
admin/form.jsp pages, because they set the content-type in the FORM
declaration.
