Were you able to get it work .. if yes how ? I'm having almost the same problem.
I used the " fieldType name="alphaOnlySort" class="solr.TextField...." as in the sample schema.xml , to define a field named "alphaname". Then copied from one of the fields name "foodDescUS" to "alphaname". When i try to sort using alphaname ... i get this error :- The field :foodDesc present in DataConfig does not have a counterpart in Solr Schema Please help Thanks Pratik -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/solr-sorting-problem-tp486144p2851229.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
