SOLR search fuzziness

[Former Member]

Hi, a question regarding the SOLR fuzziness.

we have a indexedProperty called "categoryName_text_de_de_mv" and in my index it has some values, for example ["Pullover", "Mode", "Strick"].

If I execute a query like

 select?d&q=categoryName_text_de_de_mv:pulloer~2&wt=json

I get the expected amount of results. Which means the search term "pulloer" is used as "Pullover", as i expected the fuzziness to work. BUT If I remove a letter:

 select?&q=categoryName_text_de_de_mv:pulover~2&wt=json

I get 0 results.

In my understanding the Damerau-Levenshtein Distance used by SOLR should take this into consideration.

I get the results, yes.

But still I am a little bit confused. So what you are saying is that removal is not covered with fuzziness?

But i am getting the same problem by replacing, another example is: "Blazer" --> correct results
"Blaser" --> 0 results

Hi Maximilian, I think you´ll see a difference between deleting characters and replacing them. Does Pullovvv find the Pullover? (Also distance 2)
