Currently running ES 2.4.1 and preparing to upgrade to ES 5 so I have turned on deprecation logging.

I am seeing this repeatedly in the log files (about once every 2 seconds):

> [2016-11-17 08:46:08,232][DEBUG][deprecation.common] Deprecated field [ignore\_unmapped] used, replaced by [unmapped\_type]

Since I am running this in my local developer environment, I am pretty sure no queries are being executed.

The message seems to be coming from org.elasticsearch.common.ParseField class, method match(String, boolean), but I do not understand why I'm getting the warning.

What is causing this deprecation warning and how do I fix it?

Thanks in advance!  
Steve
