Hello there,

I'm finding that a query is not working for a particular index and type,  
but works for something else.

It is as follows. I have created items/item like so. and same with  
users/user (just index/type name changed)

curl -XPUT [http://localhost:9200/items](http://localhost:9200/items) -d '  
{  
"settings" : {  
"analysis" : {  
"analyzer" : {  
"stem" : {  
"tokenizer" : "standard",  
"filter" : ["standard", "lowercase", "stop",  
"porterStem"]  
}  
}  
}  
},  
"mappings" : {  
"item" : {  
"dynamic" : true,  
"properties" : {  
"default" : {  
"type" : "string",  
"analyzer" : "stem"  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}'

I'm using filters to query users like so (WORKS YIELDS 2 HITS LIKE IT  
SHOULD)

curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/users/user/\_search?pretty=true](http://localhost:9200/users/user/_search?pretty=true)' -d  
'{"query":  
{"constant\_score":{ "filter": {"terms":{"fb\_id":["aaaa",  
"bbbb"],"execution":"bool"}} }}}'

then i do the same thing for items like so (YIELDS 0 HITS)  
curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/items/item/\_search?pretty=true](http://localhost:9200/items/item/_search?pretty=true)' -d  
'{"query":  
{"constant\_score":{ "filter":  
{"terms":{"list\_key":["aaa"],"execution":"bool"}} }}}'

When i search using below, I can see that the item is in there  
curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/items/item/\_search?pretty=true&q=](http://localhost:9200/items/item/_search?pretty=true&q=)_:_'

{  
"\_index" : "items",  
"\_type" : "item",  
"\_id" : "someid",  
"\_score" : 1.0, "\_source" : {"d\_added": 1360829619000.0, "p": 2,  
"list\_key": "aaa", "key": "someid"}

I'm completely at a loss here why it works for one, and not the other.

any helps is appreciated
