**SOLVED**

Sorry for anyone still viewing. Please disregard! The original question is left beneath. The issue is that the post request was being run via Postman, which had a bug that modified our query in an unexpected way. Using curl solved the issue.

I've got a development cluster running locally on port 9299. I've added a single item (a comment thread), such that I see the following when visiting [http://localhost:9299/comment\_threads/\_search?pretty=true&q=\*&size=10000](http://localhost:9299/comment_threads/_search?pretty=true&q=*&size=10000)

```
{
  "took" : 2,
  "timed_out" : false,
  "_shards" : {
    "total" : 3,
    "successful" : 3,
    "skipped" : 0,
    "failed" : 0
  },
  "hits" : {
    "total" : 1,
    "max_score" : 1.0,
    "hits" : [
      {
        "_index" : "comment_threads",
        "_type" : "comment_thread",
        "_id" : "1",
        "_score" : 1.0,
        "_source" : {
          "title" : "Test Title 1",
          "category" : null,
          "title_textp" : "Test Title 1",
          "updated_at" : 1522872115,
          "deleted" : false,
          "created_at" : 1522872115,
          "replies" : 0,
          "replies_boost" : 1,
          "country" : null,
          "state" : null,
          "location" : {
            "lat" : 13.37,
            "lon" : -31.14
          }
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

```

I'm running Elasticsearch via the following command with Docker:

```
docker run --name elasticsearch-test --rm -d -p 9299:9200 -p 9399:9300 -e "discovery.type=single-node" docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:6.0.0

```

My mappings (as given by [http://localhost:9299/comment\_threads/\_mappings?pretty](http://localhost:9299/comment_threads/_mappings?pretty)) are here:

```
{
  "comment_threads" : {
    "mappings" : {
      "comment_thread" : {
        "properties" : {
          "category" : {
            "type" : "keyword"
          },
          "country" : {
            "type" : "keyword"
          },
          "created_at" : {
            "type" : "integer"
          },
          "deleted" : {
            "type" : "boolean"
          },
          "location" : {
            "type" : "geo_point"
          },
          "replies" : {
            "type" : "integer"
          },
          "replies_boost" : {
            "type" : "float"
          },
          "state" : {
            "type" : "keyword"
          },
          "title" : {
            "type" : "text",
            "analyzer" : "standard"
          },
          "title_textp" : {
            "type" : "text",
            "boost" : 2.0,
            "analyzer" : "standard"
          },
          "updated_at" : {
            "type" : "integer"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

```

And I'm sending a request as follows:

```
POST http://localhost:9299/comments_threads/search?pretty

{  
  "query":{  
    "function_score":{  
      "query":{  
        "bool":{  
          "filter":[  
            {  
              "bool":{  
                "must":[  
                  {  
                    "geo_distance":{  
                      "location":{  
                        "lat":13.37,
                        "lon":-31.14
                      },
                      "distance":"50km"
                    }
                  },
                  {  
                    "term":{  
                      "deleted":false
                    }
                  }
                ]
              }
            }
          ]
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "size":1,
  "from":0,
  "track_scores":true
}

```

My response is

```
{
    "_index": "comments_threads",
    "_type": "search",
    "_id": "EC5RkmIBaoZ4KJmilJRz",
    "_version": 1,
    "result": "created",
    "_shards": {
        "total": 2,
        "successful": 1,
        "failed": 0
    },
    "_seq_no": 0,
    "_primary_term": 1
}

```

I feel almost certain that something is wrong with my environment set-up, as a coworker has been running the same commands in the same circumstances (insofar as I can tell) and getting the desired response (the single comment\_thread record). If anyone has ideas about what I could investigate to see why I'm not getting any response, please let me know.

Thank you!

Better to add an answer to your post and mark the answer as the solution.  
Instead of modifying the question.
