All, Various books and online documentation states that the uniqueKey is not required and we do not have a need for a unique key so i tried remove it from the schema or setting it with no value but solr will not start with it defined.
I do have an integer value that will be unique to each documents but uniqueKey does not work with int which seems somewhat strange to me. why waste more bytes for a string value of the integer went i all i need is an integer. Are there other setting that need to be removed or changed in order for the schema to work with no uniqueKey? I see that the analysis request handler needs uniqueKey. Maybe that is my issue. Thanks, Pete
