Hi

Indeed Tokenised "false" or "both" is required for ordering d:text, d:mltext, d:date and d:datetime.
If text is just tokenised it will order by the lowest or highest token - which is probably not what you want (unless you only ever have one token. The lucene sub-systems allows this and is confusing, SOLR makes you do it right.

I made both, index to true & tokenised to both/false but still solr showing the same issue can any one tell me why it is showing this issue similar sorting conditions are working for other categories, but for one category it is failing.

solr can sort fields with characters like 'mdash' ?????
