Hi, Thank you for your response.
The error i am getting is 'org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Invalid Date String: '1345743552'. I think it was being saved as a string in DB, so i will use the DateFormatTransformer. When i index a text field which has arabic and English like this tweet “@anaga3an: هو سعد الحريري بيعمل ايه غير تحديد الدوجلاس ويختار الكرافته ؟؟” #gcc #ksa #lebanon #syria #kuwait #egypt #سوريا with field_type as 'text_ar' and when i try to see the same field again in solr, it is shown as below. RT @AhmedWagih: لو معملناش ØØ§Ø¬Ø© Ù�ÙŠ الزيادة السكانية Ù�ÙŠ مصر، هنتØÙˆÙ„ لدولة Ù�قيرة كثيÙ�Ø© السكان زي بنجلادش #Egypt #EgyEconomy both of the lines do not mean the same, but i have just placed them here as an example. This was the problem i am facing.
