Missleading error message when uniqueKey is field is missing
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-1695
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1695
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Hoss Man
Priority: Minor
Sometimes users don't seem to notice/understand the <uniqueKey/> declaration in
the example schema, and the error message they get if their documents don't
include that field is confusing...
{code}
org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Document [null] missing required field: id
{code}
...because they get an almost identical error even if they remove
{{required=true}} from {{<field name="id" />}} in their schema.xml file.
We should improve the error message so it's clear when a Document is missing
the "uniqueKeyField" (not just a "required" field) so they know the terminology
to look for in diagnosing the problem.
