Web search sorting results by newest date first ... kind of working but not really

I have a web search form that I copied from the template. When I do a search and specify:

Sort search results by: Newest first (by date)

the results come in sorted in descending (by date) order for the most part but some of the documents have their dates switched around (i.e. are not in order).

I compare the date created in both the documents and they are indeed what is displayed in the view, I also sort the view itself (in the Notes Client) in descending order and the documents appear sorted,

why is the search displaying results where some of the doucments are not in descending order by date of creation?

any ideas?

They are sorted by the modified date, not created date.

holy cow, I had no idea. Well that certinly explains everything.

My only problem now is that I restarted the server and now nothing works, all I see on the server console (when someone tries to submit a search) is “Entry not found in index”

Thanks,
