delta import handler not working properly

Question

I followed the steps mentioned @: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler

I also tried other solution from stackoverflow however still it is not working.

Problem is: I have configured Delta-import handler still every time I run it; it indexes all records from DB. I have 30 records in DB. and every time I run delta import it is indexing all 30 records. I want only those which are changed/deleted should be indexed.

Any quick help/pointer/solution to this issue is appreciated.

Data-config.xml

<dataConfig>
    <dataSource type="JdbcDataSource" name="ds-books" driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/test" user="root" password=""/>
    <document name="books">
        <entity name="books" pk="id" query="select * from books" deltaImportQuery="SELECT * FROM books WHERE id = '${dataimporter.delta.id}'"  deltaQuery="SELECT  id FROM books WHERE last_modified &gt;  '${dataimporter.last_index_time}'" >
            <field column="id" name="id"  indexed="true" stored="true"/>
            <field column="NAME" name="name" />
            <field column="PRICE" name="price" />
        <field column="last_modified" name="last_modified" />
        </entity>
    </document>
</dataConfig>

Command that I am using to execute it is:

http://localhost:8983/solr/dataimport?command=delta-import

dataimport.properties file:

Fri May 10 17:13:18 IST 2013

last_index_time=2013-05-10 17\:13\:18

books.last_index_time=2013-05-10 17\:13\:18

dataimporter.last_index_time=2013-05-10 17\:11\:42

Answer 1

Changing following values in the data-config.xml has solved the problem

${dih.last_index_time} instead ${dataimporter.last_index_time}

${dih.delta.id} instead ${dataimporter.delta.id} .

I am using SOLR 4.0
