This is because you changed field_type from string to text_general and didn't do a clean index. So indexer doesn't have necessary position data. First empty your core using

/your_core_name/update?stream.body=<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>&commit=true

then index this core.

Attention: the update code above will delete all your data in core and this cannot be undone!

worked perfectly, just deleted & then added all documents again. – coding_idiot Jul 04 '15 at 21:34
Second time i run into this answer. Second time it saved me some serious issue tracking. Can't upvote it twice though. – jan Nov 27 '15 at 10:12
@jan Glad to hear that helped ;) – Can YILDIZ Nov 27 '15 at 14:35
But why does the index have to be flushed? Would just re-adding documents not work? – user487772 Jun 13 '16 at 11:56

@TimBezhashvyly Nope. This is the main point of the problem indeed. Because the analyzer changed, if you don't flush the index it will have two different type of index data. And this causes the error. – Can YILDIZ Jun 13 '16 at 11:58

I also got same error because of using copyfields in "PF" parameter of solr. remove any copyfields from "PF" parameter ,It will work smoothly .

My Solr Schema => copyField source="name" dest="sname"

My SolrConfig file=> attr_Cuisines^20 sname^10 neighbourhood^5 subcats^10 tags^1 features^2

when I removed "sname" from "PF" parameter,it worked
