I have an issue with sorting in solr . I want to sort the solr results on the basis of a field which has “indexed” property set to “true” and is not multivalued. I am setting the sorting parameters using the “addSortField” method. Still I cannot see the solr results not sorted . Can you please guide me as to what needs to be done to solve this issue?

It is possible the field you are sorting on is analyzed (tokenized). This often makes the sort order pretty odd for strings. I often have a string type field without analysis (just lowercasefiltered) just for sorting, using a copyfield directive to fill it from your source field.
