Have no clue why, nor have I found an open ticket about it... could you create one in Jira <https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/projects/GEOS/summary>? The weird thing is that there are tests checking the presence of next/prev links, and they are passing, but just like you, I cannot see them in the first layer I've tried on a demo server.... probably something related to the dataset, the data source, or well.. who knows what. > Finally I’ve been looking into creating a “manual” paging mechanism, but > can only provide a “startIndex” and “count”.

The reason why you get the error is that without a stable sorting key the data backend can return data in whatever order it pleases, and change it as we change the requested page (there are no guarantees). When the client provides no sort-by, GeoServer resorts to using the primary key as the "natural sorting order", and if the PK is missing, then you get the error above.
