What does it mean about this error message???

there_are_more_terms_than_documents_in_field_<someField>_but_its_impossible_
to_sort_on_tokenized_fields

 

The index is probably built and run.  Using Solr 1.4.

 

The error message is quite vague that it seems to talk about different
thing..

 

Can somebody please explain what it is?

 

Thank you in advance

That error message means that you are trying to sort on a tokenized (or
multi-valued) field which is not possible in Solr. Sorting must be done on a
field which has a single token per document.
