OrderFactoryUtil and sorting by a composite primary key https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_thread?p_l_id=119785294&threadId=120681766 2026-04-04T12:40:40Z 2026-04-04T12:40:40Z Kevin Neibarger https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_message?p_l_id=119785294&messageId=120681765 2021-03-12T14:28:04Z 2021-03-12T14:28:04Z

<p>I'm having issues doing an &quot;addOrder&quot; for a DynamicQuery for a field that is part of a composite key.</p> <p>My code looks like</p> <p> <strong>DynamicQuery dynamicQuery = DynamicQueryFactoryUtil.<i>forClass</i>(MyClass.class, this.getClassLoader());</strong></p> <p> <strong>dynamicQuery.addOrder(OrderFactoryUtil.<i>asc</i>(&quot;primaryKey.practice&quot;));</strong></p> <p>My service.xml for that field is</p> <p> <strong>&lt;column name=<i>&quot;practice&quot;</i> db-name=<i>&quot;Practice&quot;</i> type=<i>&quot;String&quot;</i> primary=<i>&quot;true&quot;</i> /&gt;</strong></p> <p>When executing the query, I get the following Exception</p> <p> <strong>14:14:01,249 ERROR [http-bio-8080-exec-73][BasePersistenceImpl:244] Caught unexpected exception org.hibernate.QueryException</strong></p> <p> <strong>14:14:01,263 ERROR [http-bio-8080-exec-73][ClpSerializer:7376] java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hibernate.QueryException</strong></p> <p> <strong>java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hibernate.QueryException</strong></p> <p>Now, I've seen this before it just means that my field name above is incorrect from what is in my <strong>service.xml</strong>, but I've used the prefix <strong>primaryKey</strong> before with great results. Why can't I use this in the OrderFactoryUtil?? I am working with a Database View not a Table. I have another View and I'm able it query it with the <strong>primaryKey</strong> <strong> </strong>with no issues. What's wrong with <strong>OrderFactoryUtil??</strong></p> <p> </p>
