I had sort-by-date working almost perfectly with my app. It was
behaving as expected for most data, but had a few hiccups with
certain data. I investigated and discovered that the correct data was
storing this in my ferret index: "1999-10-18 00:00:00" and the
incorrect data was storing this: "Mon Oct 18 00:00:00 EDT
1999" (oops...)
So I of course had to fix the incorrect data, and I figured while i
was at it, I would normalize and minimize everything to this format:
"19991018000000".
Now it seems that sorting on this column does not work at all.
I have not changed how the data is stored in the index, it has always
been:
:search_date => {:term_vectors => :no, :index
=> :untokenized, :store => :yes }
Any ideas?
Thanks.
John
