Solr spellchecker not returning any results

I am working on an application that requires me to use Solr for the first time. I got it set up, indexing the correct data, and querying as I would like it, but I cannot seem to get the spellcheck component working properly. No matter what I query, the spellchecker will not return any suggestions. I have included the relevant parts of my solrconfig and schema.xml.

schema.xml

<fieldType name="textSpell" class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100" omitNorms="true">
  <analyzer type="index">
    <charFilter class="solr.HTMLStripCharFilterFactory"/>
    <tokenizer class="solr.StandardTokenizerFactory"/>
    <filter class="solr.StopFilterFactory" ignoreCase="true" words="stopwords.txt"/>
    <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
    <filter class="solr.StandardFilterFactory"/>
  </analyzer>
  <analyzer type="query">
    <tokenizer class="solr.StandardTokenizerFactory"/>
    <filter class="solr.SynonymFilterFactory" synonyms="synonyms.txt" ignoreCase="true"  expand="true"/>
    <filter class="solr.StopFilterFactory" ignoreCase="true" words="stopwords.txt"/>
    <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/>
    <filter class="solr.StandardFilterFactory"/>
  </analyzer>
</fieldType>

When I go to http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?q=query&spellcheck.build=true then look at the files generated in /path/to/my/spell/index, there is a segments.gen and a segments_1, both of which contain only a few bytes of binary data. Then, when I enter a query and append &spellcheck=true to the query string, I get no suggestions, no matter my query:

<lst name="spellcheck">
  <lst name="suggestions"/>
</lst>

Any idea what is going on here?

I had the a very similar problem that I was never able to resolve. Someone posted a detailed answer on my question that may be able to help you out:

solr suggester not returning any results

回答2:

I ended up resolving this issue a while ago, but to my recollection, the issue was that I was using multiple <copyField/> directives to copy data to the "spell" field, but I did not set multiValued="true" on that field. When I made the spellcheck field multivalued, it worked like a charm!
