I have found in the QueryParser.jj those lines of comments: // OG: to support prefix queries: // http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12137 // Change from: // | <WILDTERM: <_TERM_START_CHAR> // (<_TERM_CHAR> | ( [ "*", "?" ] ))* > // To: // // | <WILDTERM: (<_TERM_CHAR> | ( [ "*", "?" ] ))* >
So as indicated I changed my line to the second option but it didn't solve the problem I still getting the lexical error. Do I have to do something special to this .jj file or is it read when the QueryParser.java file is compiled?

This is by-design "issue" with QueryParser (to avoid WildcardQuery's from being created that run through every term in the index). It is the way the grammar has been defined. You would need to build your own QueryParser to change this behavior. The relevant QueryParser grammar piece is this (from QueryParser.jj): | <WILDTERM: <_TERM_START_CHAR> (<_TERM_CHAR> | ( [ "*", "?" ] ))* > Erik --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
