Solr field boost does not seem to be applied

Report · Dec 23, 2013

I am indexing and searching and attempting to boost the results if found in a specfifc field, but the results do not appear as i expect

here is the cfindex

<cfindex

query="getUsers"

collection="ilpaUserSearch"

action="refresh"

type="Custom"

key="CUSTOMERCD"

title="USERS"

body="LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME, JOBTITLE,ORGNAME"

salutation_s = "LONGSALUTATION"

member_s = "CUSTOMERCD,ISMEMBERFLG"

jobtitle_s = "JOBTITLE"

orgname_s = "LORGNAME"

orgname_out_s = "ORGNAME"

email_s = ""

last_name_s = "LASTNAME"

first_name_s = "FIRSTNAME"

org_code_s = "ORGCD"

fieldboost="last_name_s:40,first_name_s:20,jobtitle_s:2,orgname_s:2"

>

here is the search

<cfsearch

collection = "ilpausersearch"

name = "search"

contextHighlightBegin = '<span class="search-format">'

contextHighlightEnd = "</span>"

contextPassages = "2"

criteria = 'last_name_s#qSearch#^40 first_name_s#qSearch#^20 jobtitle_s:#qSearch#^2 orgname_s:#qSearch#^2 '

status = "searchstatus"

startrow = "#iStart#"

maxrows= "#iGLOBAL_MAX_ROWS#"

suggestions = "10"

no matter waht i change only teh results of body are search and scored accordingly

How do i set last name to score higher than every thing else and first name to score higher than everything except job and organization?

thanks
