Hi James I think this feature is in 1.2, which is not released yet (in CVS/nightly)
From http://wiki.apache.org/solr/StandardRequestHandler
"Note, in solr1.1 the query and sort parameter were combined as a single parameter separated with a ';' (q="name:solr; date desc"). Since solr1.2, it is recommend to use the "sort" parameter described in CommonQueryParameters." -Nick On 5/24/07, James O'Rourke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I am having strange behaviour experimenting with the example solr server. Via the tutorial - except I set up my own schema. Anyway, here's the issue - if I provide the explicit "sort" param in my request, the sort does not seem to execute, however if I have the encoded sort via using "; field desc" for example, sorting does work. Is this expected behaviour? Is there something I'm missing. Eg; This does not sort: http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?indent=on&q=24&sort=lastmodified% 20desc&fl=uniquekey,lastmodified This does: http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?indent=on&q=24;%20lastmodified% 20asc&fl=uniquekey,lastmodified Anyone know why?
