Description

Hi everyone, recently i was trying to have the boost in the query and highlighting on in parallel. But if have the boost, highlighting doesn't works, but the moment i remove the boost highlighting start working again.

Below is the request i am sending.

http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/select?q=%2B_query_%3A%22

{!type%3Dedismax+qf%3D%27body^1.0+title^10.0%27+pf%3D%27body^2%27+ps%3D36+pf2%3D%27body^2%27+pf3%3D%27body^2%27+v%3D%27apple%27+mm%3D100}%22&group=true&group.field=content_group_id_k&group.ngroups=true&group.limit=3&fl=id%2Clanguage_k%2Clast_modified_date_dt%2Ctitle&rows=20&hl.snippets=1&hl.fragsize=200&hl.fl=body&hl.fl=title&hl=true&hl.q=%2B_query_%3A%22{!type%3Dedismax+qf%3D%27body^1.0+title^10.0%27+pf%3D%27body^2%27+ps%3D36+pf2%3D%27body^2%27+pf3%3D%27body^2%27+v%3D%27apple%27+mm%3D100}

%22&debugQuery=true&wt=json&indent=true&hl.snippets=1&hl.fragsize=200&hl.fl=body&hl.fl=title&hl=true&boost=boost_weight

OR

But if i do above two without the boost or use bf(additive) instead of boost(multiplicative), things works but i don't get the boost(multiplicative).

I am using SOLR4.1.0

Any help in this is really appreciated.
