Parse failure on orderby

Vote:

I have indexed my content. I have a field that is an int (my_custom_field below) and would like to sort on it. I'm getting the error below:

Parse Failure [No mapping found for [ContentApiModel.my_custom_field] in order to sort on]];

The API URI looks like this:

'v2.0/search/content/?query=halle&orderby=my_custom_field desc&skip=0&top=10'

Well, I changed the query to this. I no longer get a nasty 500 error. It returns results, but they aren't sorted as expected.

Well, only enough, this does NOT produce an error: 'v2.0/search/content/?query=some string&orderby=my_custom_field/value&skip=0&top=10'

This is what I see in my log:
