Hello.  
I have trouble to open index that I closed yesterday.  
there are 3 nodes in elasticsearch-1.1.0/data/elasticsearch/nodes/0, 1, 2  
I can open & close indexs in nodes 0.  
but can't open indexs in nodes 1.

nodes/0 have indices and \_stat folder with empty node.lock file.  
nodes/1 does not have node.lock file.

For example,  
2013-11-25 folder exists in  
elasticsearch-1.1.0/data/elasticsearch/nodes/0/indices  
2014-01-01 folder exists in  
elasticsearch-1.1.0/data/elasticsearch/nodes/1/indices

curl -XPOST 'localhost:9200/2013-11-25/\_open'  
{"acknowledged":true}

curl -XPOST localhost:9200/2014-01-01/\_open'  
{"error":"IndexMissingException[[2014-01-01] missing]","status":404}

is there any one who know what is going wrong with it?  
and there is no error in log files.

thanks in advance.

Jin

Check your ES logs, it should show something useful.
