I'm using Solr 3.5.0 and Haystack 1.2.4. After running Solr with a schema.xml defined by the output of `./manage.py build_solr_schema`, Solr throws numerous errors.

search_indexes.py: http://pastie.org/3018296
schema.xml: http://pastie.org/3018304

When I run `java -jar start.jar` in the base of my solr directory, I get this error: "Unknown fieldtype '' specified on field" (full traceback: http://pastie.org/3018313). This is caused by a group of 10 identical fields in my schema.xml with empty field names (). Of course, if I remove those lines, Solr starts up perfectly, but then I get errors when trying to index (e.g. "ERROR: [doc=app.course.260] unknown field 'description'").
