Hi!

User tries to search issue with summary like that "BE: Move LoginController".

The following JQL query returns nothing

summary ~ "BE"

Even usual search by "BE" can't find this issue.

Please suggest.

Thanks.

"be" is in the list of *stop words* in English, ie words that are not indexed so can't be searched for, because they are deemed to be too common.

Unfortunately the list is hard-wired: http://www.koders.com/java/fid5FBD7DCAFB544D74598A9B1D82A341CD648DA47F.aspx?s=java#L1

The workaround IIRC is to change the indexing language, then reindex. Not sure it's worth it.
