Query based on eq() stopped working for one predicate

the proposed workaround from above issue isn’t working for my simple setup:

  • start with a clean dgraph/standalone:latest docker image, no schema setup yet
  • using the go client create 30k nodes all with same dgraph.type one by one, each referencing between 0 and 250 of the other nodes
  • run the schema update adding the single type and a hash index to a string field
  • the log shows the successful schema update: Done schema update predicate:“state” value_type:STRING directive:INDEX tokenizer:“hash”

But still, searching for a node using eq(state, “some”) doesn’t yield any results.
I’m not using Datetime tokenizer in my schema and going through the dgraph logs there is no error or warning at all.
