Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-1695:
------------------------------------
bq. the ConvertedLegacyTest failure confuses me though
schema.xml does not require the "id" field, and the failing add explicitly says
"allowDups=false" (legacy speak for overwrite=false)
> Missleading error message when adding docs with missing/multiple value(s)
> for uniqueKey field
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: SOLR-1695
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1695
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Hoss Man
> Assignee: Hoss Man
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.5
>
>
> 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.
