sort order errors

[Greg]

Hi,

If I send through a sort parameter of 'name' I get an error on tomcat
saying it "Can't determine the sort order", also if I put 'name+desc'
I get the same error, though note that the plus sign is changed to
%2B.

If I put the same query 'name+desc' into a direct call to solr from
the browser I don't get the error and the results are sorted.

Cheers

It works by just excluding the plus sign, so using a space instead.

did you try a sort parameter of "name desc", this is what Solr is expecting after decoding the query paramaters. The client will automaticly encode the space as a + according to query string encoding rules (so don't do it yourself).  

See: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/CommonQueryParameters#sort

Good luck,
Donovan
