Hi Van, It doesn’t look as though the search indexes are the cause of the problem (though I haven’t seen simple DC used in search indexes before, so one thing to try would be using dc.description.* instead. In saying this, I just rebuild indexes using simple DC and it seems to work OK.. whether it is actually matching dc.description.abstract properly could be a different story..)
The error is happening on a browse rather than a search. I tried a few others and note that http://ses.library.usyd.edu.au/browse?type=dateissued works fine, so perhaps you just need to make sure that you do have a browse index like: webui.browse.index.<n> = date:item:dateaccessioned (where <n> is the relevant browse index number) (I’m assuming you want the index called 'date' to be browsing by dc.date.accessioned there, and not dc.date.issued, and you might need to test sorting as well, but you get the idea) All your other browse links seem to work. Hope this helps -- if not, perhaps you could paste all your index configs to a pastebin somewhere for a double-check.

At a guess, I'm trying to fix the fault in the case the database was changed, as suggested by those search index lines, but the index wasn't updated somehow. Any clues to the solution?
