: aha. the type is "sint" : : do i need to use "string" ore which field did not use any tokenizer ? ^^ : i thought sint is untokenized...
You have to be explicit about what you mean -- if by sint you are refering to something like this from the Solr 1.4 example schema... <fieldType name="sint" class="solr.SortableIntField" sortMissingLast="true" omitNorms="true"/> ...then you are correct, it is not tokenized -- but we aren't mind readers, we have no idea if you've modified your schema.xml to change what "sint" is. We also have no idea if your popularity field is multivalued -- as Koji said, if it's multivalued that may also explain this behavior. as for getting this error in one instance of Solr and not in another -- it's going to be data specific so that's not suprising. -Hoss
