    Defect Status

    Issue VYG-4232 is currently in Development.

    Replication Steps

    1. Cataloging > Search > Boolean
    2. Search 008P or 008L:
    008P enk
    008L eng
    3. Search returns no results, though there are matching records
    4. Search a variable length field:
    245A blue
    5. Search returns results, some of which also match the previously searched 008P or 008L
    6. Now combine them:
    245A blue AND 008L eng
    7. Search fails
    8. All subsequent keyword searches fail until the client is closed and reopened.

    Workaround

    Use Index Selection tab to search 008L and 008P left-anchored indexes.
