Right, as Mark said, this is how the dates were indexed previously. However, instead of passing in the actual String, we passed a java.util.Date object which was automagically converted to the correct string.
Now (the code on our end has not changed), solr throws an exception because the string it sees is of the form 'Sun Jul 31 19:00:00 CDT 2016' -- (which I believe is the Date.toString() result) instead of the DatePointField or TrieDateField format. ~~ Bill On Mon, Apr 1, 2019 at 8:44 PM Zheng Lin Edwin Yeo <edwinye...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi Bill, > > Previously, did you index the date in the same format as you are using now, > or in the Solr format of "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ"? > > Regards, > Edwin > > > On Tue, 2 Apr 2019 at 00:32, Bill Tantzen <tantz...@umn.edu> wrote: > > > In a legacy application using Solr 4.1 and solrj, I have always been > > able to add documents with TrieDateField types using java.util.Date > > objects, for instance, > > > > doc.addField ( "date", new java.util.Date() ); > > > > having recently upgraded to Solr 7.7, and updating my schema to > > leverage DatePointField as my type, that code no longer works, it > > throws an exception with an error like: > > > > Invalid Date String: 'Sun Jul 31 19:00:00 CDT 2016' > > > > I understand that this String is not what solr expects, but in lieu of > > formatting the correct String, is there no longer a way to pass in a > > simple Date object?
