Hi all,  
I have a problem with Elasticsearch. vid is a long field in my index. I try to search with:

```
POST my-index/video/_search
{
  "query": {
    "term": {
      "vid": 6518061120253592000
    }
  }
}

```

but get nothing. Try with other fields (not long type), it's successful. I'm sure that the document is existed in Elasticsearch.

My Elasticsearch version is 5.4.0

Please help me. Thanks!

I finally found the root cause here:
