Okay : Test done with ES 0.18.5 under windows with a fresh and clean install. Step 4 produces : { "test" : { "type" : { "\_source" : { "enabled" : false }, "properties" : { "test" : { "type" : "string" } } } } } So Slavag seems to have something strange on its side as he said that he got for step 4 : { "test" : { "type" : { "properties" : { "test" : { "type" : "string" } } } } } HTH, David.

Hi David, Can you please run this curl -XGET localhost:9200/test/\_search?pretty=true -d ' { "query" : { "term" : { "test" : "value" } } } ' What is the result ? ---

Sure. First, it's a POST request not a GET. I get a single hit without source : { "took":0, "timed\_out":false, "\_shards":{ "total":5, "successful":5, "failed":0 }, "hits":{ "total":1, "max\_score":0.30685282, "hits":[{ "\_index":"test", "\_type":"type", "\_id":"1", "\_score":0.30685282 } ] } } Le 14 décembre 2011 à 15:14, slavag [slavago@gmail.com](mailto:slavago@gmail.com) a écrit : > Hi David, > Can you please run this curl -XGET localhost:9200/test/\_search?pretty=true > -d ' > { > "query" : { > "term" : { "test" : "value" } > } > } > ' > What is the result ? > -- > David Pilato > [http://dev.david.pilato.fr/](http://dev.david.pilato.fr/) > Twitter : @dadoonet ---

Hi David, GET worked also, but any way I did POST and get : { "took" : 5, "timed\_out" : false, "\_shards" : { "total" : 5, "successful" : 5, "failed" : 0 }, "hits" : { "total" : 1, "max\_score" : 0.30685282, "hits" : [ { "\_index" : "test", "\_type" : "type", "\_id" : "1", "\_score" : 0.30685282, "\_source" : {"test" : "value"} } ] } } When curl localhost:9200/test/\_mapping?pretty=1 : returns : { "test" : { "type" : { "properties" : { "test" : { "type" : "string" } } } } } So, what could be a problem - I did exactly what you did and Shay said and we have different results in search ? Thank You. ---

I test it under windows using mobz inteface. That's perhaps why GET produces nothing for me... BTW, I remember having some troubles some months ago with mappings in conf dir. Let me tell something that not answer directly to your concern. It could be a better idea to send mapping to an ES node instead of having to copy on each node a conf file. BTW, are you really sure that your 0.18.5 is a fresh one ? Do you have some globals var in your system (what printenv produces ?) ? David.

Hi David, Thank for quick response , per your question - yes this is fresh 18.5 - just unpacked it and put the mapping in the config. Can you describe a little bit more the sending mapping to an ES node ? As for global vars in the system I don't see any special, but is there some global vars that has effect on the ES ? Best Regards. ---

Here is a gist :[Create Mappings · GitHub](https://gist.github.com/1477309) > is the unix script to push mapping files to a node (localhost:9200) ./createMapping mymapping It sends the mymapping.json file to ES. Then ES spread the mapping to each nodes. > Is a sample mapping JSON file Not sure that is what you are after but may help... About ES VARS, I was only thinking about ES\_JAVA\_OPTS or JAVA\_OPTS in which you can have defined a -Des.path.data or -Des.path.conf or something like that.

David, Thank You a lot. Looking on the script and it seems that i need it of each index, now when my application is multi-tanant application and new index are coming as new customer is join and even more the new index types are also can come pretty often. So it means that I need to put mapping for every new tenant (new index) / for every new index type. Do you see any other solution to my case - btw, the mapping that I need for all index type and for all tenants ( at least the the mandatory fields) are very few : some date, id of data and user account. Those are 3 fields that I need to store and not analyze and I have to not store \_source. Any suggestions ? Thank You very much for your assistance. ---

default-mapping.json works. Can you check in your logs again if you see the node you start joining another node?

I checked, nothing - this is stand alone home computer. ---

Hi Shay, Any thought ? May be I need to check it in Linux OS ? ---

Operating system does not matter. The only two reasons that I can think can cause it is that you are not using the config location you think you are using, or there is another node started that acts as the master with a different configuration.

As i said before - stand alone computer , as for config location - I never changed it. ---
