             Summary: Sorting on dynamic fields using DocValues sorts empty values always first
                 Key: SOLR-5222
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5222
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Pascal Chollet
            Priority: Minor


When using DocValues for sort fields, "sortMissingLast=true" seems not to work - which makes sense as DocValues require a value for every document. The workaround is to use a default value which is alphanumericly sorted last. But when specifying the sort field as a dynamic field, the default value is not applied when a document does not contain that field.
To make it work, I had to define every single sort field explicitly.
