Hello, Yes I restart solr and re-index after the change. The request is: http://localhost:8983/solr/patientsCollection/select?q=*%3A*&sort=name_sort+asc&wt=json&indent=true&_=1429082874881
I am using the solr console admin and in the "query" option I just define the field sort with "name_sort asc". thanks!

Did you reload the core or restart Solr and then reindex after you changed your schema? A reindex will be required. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToReindex Thanks, Shawn
