Hi, Fixed this problem finally. The "*name*" attribute for fieldInputTransformer and fieldOutputTransformer in the solrconfig.xml MUST have the value "*dse*" . This was the value given in documentation and the FT blog. I had changed it to a different name to make it more readable, and seems it got silently ignored. There is no mention about this in the documentation. If it requires a hardcoded name, i suggest it shouldn't be exposed as an attribute itself.
<fieldInputTransformer* name="xyz" *class="fqcn.of.XYZInputTransformer"/> //wont work <fieldInputTransformer* name="dse" *class="fqcn.of.XYZInputTransformer"/> //works Thanks, Joseph On Fri, Mar 18, 2016 at 9:33 PM, Joseph Tech <jaalex.t...@gmail.com> wrote: > I had verified that it works on a 2-node cluster where one is setup as > online, and the other as search.
