Is prepareBulk() deprecated?
Here is the exception report during integration testing:

I looked in the code for ESearch 90.5 using grep, andn could not find where
the method was anywhere but in the:

Additional Infromation:
This is the tomcat logs. I did wade through the code and found the
implementation of prepareBulk(), it just returns (this). From any client
that instantiates the abstract class.
The tomcat logs show:

Which is weired because I have a running ESearch node on my machine, andthe tests
for 'osem' are run using the exact same settings.
osem.clusterName = elasticsearch
osem.clientTransportSniff = true
osem.host = 127.0.0.1
osem.port = 9300
(these get passed when creating a client)

The method did not change:

Because you can't continue to use 0.19 client when connecting to 0.90,
check your class path if you have any old ES jars left.

WAY late responding to this, but putting it in here for archival reasons. I
basically abandoned my own paid for library and switched to a language I
was more familiar with, PHP. I think that PHP/Symfony/Doctrine is a more
complete framework than Java/Spring. Or let's say, more complete out of the
box. There's an Elasticsearch/Doctrine connector, and a complete security
model in Symfony that doesn't call permissions roles and roles permissions
(or whatever the spring security DOES name backwards). In the 3 years I
worked with Java, I never saw a security model that worked the way I wanted
it to do.
Elasticsearch-wise, I wasn't prepared to keep upgrading libraries I paid
for, paying more money, to keep up with Java versions and ES versions. So I
dropped back to PHP and using the JSON Api for ES.
