What I want to achieve : Take a keyword array as input and query Sharepoint List to return all rows which contain the keywords in the list.
I have built a simple CAML query to query my list with one keyword (pdf) .
<Query><Where><Contains><FieldRef Name='Keyword'/><Value Type='Text'>pdf</Value></Contains></Where></Query>
This works fine.
But, when I try to use Or clause in the CAML query(see below), I get the following error
"One or more field types are not installed properly. Go to the list settings page to delete these fields."
<Query><Where><Or><Contains><FieldRef Name='Keyword'/><Value Type='Text'>pdf</Value></Contains></Or></Where></Query>
I googled for the syntax and everything looks good. Please let me know what is missing.
Thanks in advance.
In CAML Query if you want to use OR you must and should have 2 conditions.
The field reference name must be the internal name. You can find this by going to the colmn page in list/library settings and the name is the end of the URL. Spaces and underscores in the name must be handled differently.

I try to get an extract of the text with the searched words highlighted on a JSON collection.
My search syntax is:
qb.word(qb.field('doc_text'),vartxt)
With 'doc_text' declared as field
(field type: root, include root: false, includes: doc_text), in an Node.js application.
The search works well, and it is done well on this field ...
But in txt[0].results[kl].matches[0]['match-text'], I find the first 3 properties of the JSON,
and not an extract from 'doc_text' with the words found.
I have another application in which the highlights work correctly, but it is based on XML.
Did I forget something in the field declaration, or is the operation different between JSON
and XML data, or is the highlight system not running on JSON via Node.js and QueryBuilder ?
Kind regards
Fields do not work quite the same way in XML and JSON. I think you're running into this limitation:
http://docs.marklogic.com/guide/app-dev/json#id_24090
The value of a field in XML can be the concatenation of all the text nodes, but the same does not apply in JSON.
I think I understood !!!
This query gives a correct snippet, with the extract and the words highlighted :
mkcq.and(mkcq.collection('document'), mkcq.word(mkcq.field('doc_text'), 'connaitre'))
On the other hand, this query gives the first 3 fields of the JSON :
mkcq.and(mkcq.collection('document'), mkcq.word(mkcq.field('doc_text'), 'connaitre'), mkcq.value(mkcq.element('','doc_user'), 'mbp'))
I do not know if this is normal or not, but it should be able to be corrected either by a simplified query and a selection on the returned records, evening by a particular snippeter.
Kind regards
I am doing a query with solr where I need to find documents without a given field say 'name' and I am trying following part;
$q=+status:active -name:["" TO *]'
But it sends both all the documents with and without that field.
Can anyone help me figure this out?
the field name is a normal String type and is indexed.
I am using nodejs. Can anyone help me with this
According to docs:
-field:[* TO *] finds all documents without a value for field
Update
I tried it but it sends even the ones with the field non empty
Then my wild quess is that you are using search query q instead of using filter query fq. Since you are using multiple statements in query I assume that q does some extra magic to get the most relevant documents for you, which can lead to returning some non-wanted results.
If you want to get the strict set of results you should use filter query fq instead, see docs.
Name of the column in document library is :
Column name => Keywords (Sub-Processes, Methodology, Servicing Model, etc)
Column Type=> Multiple lines of text
We are using the above column name in the caml query as below
query.Query = "<Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='Keywords(Sub-Processes,Methodology,Servicing Model, etc)'/><Value Type='Text'>Merchant Services,Merchant Set Up</Value></Eq></Where>";
but when we run the code we get the exception:
Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: One or more field types are not
installed properly. Go to the list settings page to delete these
fields.
Is this exception because of special characters used in the column name if yes then how can I correct it.
We can't change the column name because it is requirement.
Internal names and display names are quite different from each other. They can be the same in some cases but not all. There is generally an escape sequence in between two words with a space.
It is often a good practice to retrieve the internal name at runtime rather than hardcoding it.
Here's how to do it:
var internalName=list.Fields.GetFieldByInternalName(column.ColumnName).Title;
I can tell you for sure (given the special characters) that that's not the internal name of the field. It might be the display name, but it's not the internal name.
The error is because there is no field with an internal name of what you have provided.
Personally, when I want to find the internal name of a field I go to the list settings for the list and edit the column. When doing so there will be a query parameter with 'field=' followed by the internal name. There are other places that it can be found, and other sharepoint tools (SharePoint Manager was mentioned by another poster) that can be used to get such information.
I used "Keywords_x0020_x002f_x0020_Folksnomy" and it worked for me.
I fetched all the columns of the Document library and bind it to the GridView,in GridView I found this name.
Display Column name => Keywords (Sub-Processes, Methodology, Servicing Model, etc)
Wrong one is =>
Keywords_x0020_(Sub-Processes,_x0020_Methodology,_x0020_Servicing_x0020_Model,_x0020_etc)
Newly found correct name is => Keywords_x0020_x002f_x0020_Folksnomy
I have made a query against a list. I want to get the last modified item which meets a certain condition, and my query looks like this:
<Query><OrderBy><FieldRef Name='Modified' Ascending='FALSE' /></OrderBy><Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='kortnummer'/><Value Type='String'>kv11</Value></Eq></Where></Query>
I get the listitems i need, just not in the right order. Changing Ascending to true does nothing, so obviously there is something with the OrderBy clause that is not right..
According to MSDN it should be possible to order by Modified.
Any idea why my OrderBy does not work?
I always put the OrderBy after the Where.
Otherwise you could make sure that you are using the internal name. I usually use SharePoint Manager 2007 to get the internal field names. Codeplex SharePoint manager
I can see that on a list in my SharePoint, the modified column internal name is "Last_x0020_Modified".
If you're doing this in a C# string to get an SPListItemCollection, you don't need "<Query></Query>" tags.
Let's say I have a string array of field internal names. How do I get their display names?
I've been searching for an answer and found that there is a SPFieldCollection(SPWeb web, string strXml) constructor. My first thought - yeehaw, i can pass a CAMLquery and get SPFieldCollection objects to work with.
However for strXml I've tried passing following CAML query:
<FieldRef's> (<FieldRef Name='Abc'><FieldRef....)
<ViewFields><FieldRef's></ViewFields>
<Fields><FieldRef's></Fields>
but unlucky. No results.
Any ideas on how to do this?
Is there any reason in parcitular you don't want to loop through the names and call
web.Fields.GetField( internalName )
for each name?
One drawback from this approach is that GetField will fallback onto display name matching if the internal name can't be found, so if you have some funky crossovers between internal and displayname things might get a bit tricky. In that case I'd loop through the FieldCollection in stead and match the other way around, directly on InternalName.
