Search not working properly

[Михаил Коновалов]

After upgrading Confluence to 6.15 search not working properly.

For example if i search "director" for Active Directory it doesn't work, but if i search "director*" it work.

I tried to rebuild search index and completely remove index directories, but it doesn't help.

Hi @Михаил Коновалов 

This is normal behavior, If i search for "Director" and i really need that word. I don't want see results like "Directory" poluting the search results.

Hi @Dave Bosman [Realdolmen] , thanks for answer!

It's strange behavior. I think search must work with half-word requests and it's worked normally before upgrade (version was 6.12.2).

For example Google search doesn't make you to write requests with wildcards

No, but google search is intentionally "fuzzy" at first and gets you to narrow down later.  Most Confluence users do not want to have to do iterative search refining, they are looking for precise searches.

Ok, are there any ways to make the search work as i need?
