Hi there,

I just upgraded my elasticsearch 1.7 to 6.2.  
Mapping is the same but query doesn't work anymore.

Here is my old mapping:  
"myField": {  
"type": "string",  
"index\_options": "offsets",  
"term\_vector": "with\_positions\_offsets",  
"null\_value": "",  
"boost": 2,  
"fields": {  
"raw": {  
"type": "string",  
"index": "not\_analyzed",  
"null\_value": "",  
"doc\_values": true  
}  
}  
}

And here is the new mapping:  
"myField": {  
"type": "text",  
"index\_options": "offsets",  
"term\_vector": "with\_positions\_offsets",  
"boost": 2,  
"copy\_to": "all",  
"fields": {  
"raw": {  
"type": "keyword",  
"index": true,  
"null\_value": "",  
"doc\_values": true  
}  
}  
}

It used to return results for " Angels AND & AND Devil", not anymore.  
Am I missing something?
