solr query not returning results

When I enter search url

http://localhost:8983/solr/select?qt=standard&rows=10&q=*:*

I get a response with 10 documents.

But when I want to test specific query, then nothing comes up. For example:

http://localhost:8983/solr/select?qt=standard&rows=10&q=white

Why is that happening? I clearly see in results, that there is document with word "White" in it. So Why solr dont return that document as result.?

q=*:* searches for all content on all the documents, hence you get back the results.

q=white will search for white on the default search field, which is usually text if you have not modified the schema.xml.

<defaultSearchField>text</defaultSearchField>

You can change the default field to be the field you want to search on.
OR use specific field to search on the specific field e.g. title q=title:white

If you want to search on multiple field, you can combine the fields into one field by using copyfields or use dismax request handler.
