Hi, I am using Solr 8.5.2 and when I use FileBasedSpellChecker, I always get "correctlySpelled": false even if the spellcheck.q value exists in the file.
Apart from that it is working as expected. When I give slightly misspelled term to spellcheck.q param, it returns the valid suggestion present in the file. Following is the minimal setting with which I could reproduce the issue: <requestHandler name="/spellcheck_filter_custom" class= "org.apache.solr.handler.component.SearchHandler"> <lst name="defaults"> <str name="spellcheck.dictionary" >fileBasedSpellChecker_custom_spellcheck_en</str> <str name="spellcheck">true</str> <str name="spellcheck.extendedResults">true</str> </lst> <arr name="last-components"> <str>spellcheck_filter_custom</str> </arr> </requestHandler> <searchComponent name="spellcheck_filter_custom" class= "solr.SpellCheckComponent"> <lst name="spellchecker"> <str name="classname">solr.FileBasedSpellChecker</str> <str name="name">fileBasedSpellChecker_custom_spellcheck_en</str> <str name="sourceLocation" >./spellcheck/custom_spellcheck_list_en.txt</str> <str name="characterEncoding">UTF-8</str> <str name="spellcheckIndexDir" >./fileBasedSpellChecker_custom_spellcheck_en</str> </lst> </searchComponent> And here is the custom_spellcheck_list_en.txt file contents cleve unit here is the call: http://solr:8983/solr/answers/spellcheck_filter_custom?spellcheck.q=cleve&spellcheck.build=true And here is the response: {"responseHeader": {"status": 0,"QTime": 61},"command": "build","response": {"numFound": 0,"start": 0,"docs": []},"spellcheck": {"suggestions": []," correctlySpelled": false}} If I pass a slightly incorrect term, it works fine: http://solr:8983/solr/answers/spellcheck_filter_custom?spellcheck.q=clev&spellcheck.build=true {"responseHeader": {"status": 0,"QTime": 34},"command": "build","response": {"numFound": 0,"start": 0,"docs": []},"spellcheck": {"suggestions": ["clev", {"numFound": 1,"startOffset": 0,"endOffset": 4,"suggestion": ["cleve"]}]," correctlySpelled": false}}
