Daniel, Think you've cracked it thanks. If I search for "purpl" I get the hits I expect. Suspect I'm doing something wrong with compass as I presume it should be converting "purple" to "purpl" before passing the query to lucene. I've tried explicitly telling it to use snowball at point of query, but it didn't make any difference. Guess I'll have to start pestering the grails mailing list.
Thanks very much for your help. Steve 2008/5/10 Daniel Naber <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Samstag, 10.
