  | |  | Exception: cannot determine sort type | Exception: cannot determine sort type 2004-12-22 - By Kauler, Leto S
Back We have been implementing Lucene as the datasource for our website--Lucene is exposed through a java web service which our ASP pages query and process. So far things have been going very well and in general tests everything has been fine.
Interestingly though, under a small server stress test (up to 2 connections/second) every second or third query has been producing the error:
"java.lang.RuntimeException : no terms in field Title_Sort - cannot determine sort type"
Title_Sort is a sort-specific field (Store?lse, Index=true, Tokenise?lse). I do not have access to the actual Lucene-calling code, but I do not believe that the creation of the SortField defines a type (so just defaults to AUTO).
I dug up this message from the list where Erik suggested to define a specific type in the SortField, which in this case solved the original poster's problem. <http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listName=lucene-user@(protected) .apache.org&msgId26050>
We could specify the sort type as String but we do have some Date fields too. Are dates actually indexed as strings?
I am wondering why this exception might occur when the server/index is under load. I do realise there are many 'variables in the equation', so there probably is not an easy answer to this.
