I forgot to mention another issue I run into. Looks like "docValues" is
not supported with DateRangeField, is this true?
If I have:
<fieldType name="dateRange" class="solr.DateRangeField"/>
<field name="other_dates" docValues="true" type="dateRange"
multiValued="true" indexed="true" required="false" stored="false"/>
Solr will fail to start, reporting the following error:
org.apache.solr.core.CoreContainer; Error creating core [openpages]:
Could not load conf for core openpages: Field type
dateRange{class=org.apache.solr.schema.DateRangeField,analyzer=org.apache.solr.schema.FieldType$DefaultAnalyzer,args={class=solr.DateRangeField}}
does not support doc values.
I have to remove "docValues" to fix this. Is this the case or have I
missed something?
Thanks.
