I want to use the 'delete-by-query' plugin.After installing the plugin, I had this query and got the result which I do not expect: `query:curl -XDELETE 'localhost:9200/world/city/_query?q=Name:2323'` ``` unexpected result: {"found":false,"_index":"world","_type":"city","_id":"_query","_version":1,"_shards":{"total":2,"successful":2,"failed":0}} ``` ---

It looks good. What exact command you send on the command line? Are you using any third party tool to run this command? Browser plugin or so? May be you are doing this from head plugin? ---

command：curl -XDELETE 'localhost:9200/world/city/\_query?q=Name:2323' The head plugin doesn't work either. Look at the below: `I use command 'curl localhost:9200/_plugin/head',and it returns ''` I don't know why. ---

> [@miracle24](#): > > I use command `curl localhost:9200/_plugin/head`, and it returns... This is correct. It's a `REDIRECT` to `/_plugin/head/`. ```auto curl -XDELETE 'localhost:9200/world/city/_query?q=Name:2323' ``` It seems to be correct. Just to make sure that everything is fine, can you: - install a new empty fresh node 2.1.0 with default settings - install delete plugin - index one doc - remove it with delete by query ? Thanks ---
