**_ElasticSearch "2.4.4"_**  
**_Java "1.8.0\_151"_**

Hi folks,

The first example fails with MapperParsingException[Analyzer [bigrams] not found for field [displayName]];.

here is [https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/767](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/767) similar closed issues.

But about the case when we are using settings.json in resource and spring data annotations (@Setting(settingPath = "/settings/settings.json") in class level, and @Field(type = FieldType.String, analyzer = "bigrams") for corresponding field) .

```
{  
   "index":{  
      "analysis":{  
         "filter":{  
            "bigrams_filter":{  
               "type":"ngram",
               "min_gram":"2",
               "max_gram":"2"
            }
         },
         "analyzer":{  
            "bigrams":{  
               "type":"custom",
               "tokenizer":"standard",
               "filter":[  
                  "lowercase",
                  "bigrams_filter"
               ]
            }
         }
      }
   }
}

@Setting(settingPath = "/settings/settings.json")
public abstract class AbstractSearchEntity implements Entity {
........
@field(type = FieldType.String, analyzer = "bigrams")
private String displayName;`
..........

}

```

Where do you store your `settings.json` file?

The file is supposed to be located in

```
myproject/src/main/resources/settings/
```

The path is in`investigation-service/src/main/resources/settings/settings.json`.

The error I got because used that file under wrong service resource folder.  
My abstract class in `core-service`, but implementations in `investigation-service`.  
The solution is put it in `core-service` instead of.

Thank your for your question.

Indeed, the problem was the location of the file. Glad you figured it out!
