solr suggester not returning any results

Question

I\'ve followed the solr wiki article for suggester almost to the T here: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/Suggester. I have the following xml in my solrconfig.xml:

Answer 1

Could the problem be that you're querying /suggest instead of /spell

../suggest/?q=barbequ

In my setup this the string I pass in:

/solr/spell?q=barbequ&spellcheck=true&spellcheck.collate=true

And the first time you do a spellcheck you need to include

&spellcheck.build=true

I'm running on solr 4 btw. So, perhaps /suggest is an entirely different endpoint that does something else. If so, apologize.
