Hey, when you do curl -X HEAD -v localhost:9200/test Are you getting back a HTTP 200? Apart from that, can you post some snippets, how you are initiating your connection to the elasticsearch node?

I am getting 200 OK. For standalone, I created a single node cluster, I have set cluster name and node.anme in elasticsearch.yml. Looks like that is the problem, if I restore to default (no cluster and node name set in elasticsearch.yml) I get true for indices....exist(). My mapping is {"type1":{"properties":{"description":{"type":"string"},"id":{"type": "string"},"name":{"type":"string"}}}} . I see the same structure as output for curl -XGET [http://localhost:9200/\_mapping](http://localhost:9200/_mapping) With default setting, I tried adding index (json as below) and in console could not see any exception "id":"TEST2113-FFC4-4EE1-94A5-764D9EFD2C70","description":"sample test","name":"test it".

Have a look here: [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/java-api/index_.html) I never used the get() notation but .execute().actionGet().

Hey, looking at your java code you are actually creating your own instance, instead of connecting to your existing elasticsearch instance. See this line which creates an elasticsearch node: NodeBuilder.nodeBuilder().settings(settings).node() If the node you created is not joining as a cluster with your already running elasticsearch instance, it will not see the created index and therefore show your error. Take a look at your logfiles if you are seeing any cluster joins. Also I think you need to call node.start() in order to fire it up. --Alex On Fri, Mar 22, 2013 at 9:37 AM, Chetana [ambha.career@gmail.com](mailto:ambha.career@gmail.com) wrote: > I am getting 200 OK. > > For standalone, I created a single node cluster, I have set cluster name > and node.anme in elasticsearch.yml.

thanks both of you for quick responses... Now I added cluster and node in in settings .put("node.name", "mynode") .put("node.data", true) .put("cluster.name", "elasticsearch") I have also set just the node name as "mynode" in elasticsearch.yml so that by default it will consider "elasticsearch" cluster In log I see "mynode" as node in elasticsearch cluster and also curl -XGET [http://localhost:9200/\_cluster/nodes](http://localhost:9200/_cluster/nodes) confirms the same There are no errors I see below lines and XGET returns exists:false - [mynode] [test] creating index, cause [auto(index api)], shards [1]/[0], mappings -[mynode] [test] update\_mapping [asset] (dynamic) With all these changes I am still not able to index valid data On Friday, March 22, 2013 2:22:32 PM UTC+5:30, Alexander Reelsen wrote: > Hey, > > looking at your java code you are actually creating your own instance, > instead of connecting to your existing elasticsearch instance.

When I use tranportclient instead of NodeClient data gets inserted. Do you advice using TransportClient instead of NodeClient even for single node cluster Which one (node or transport) is better when indexing is done from web application? Does the TransportClient have runtime overhead compared to NodeClient?

**Author:** ![Chetana](https://avatars.discourse-cdn.com/v4/letter/c/dbc845/32.png) [@Chetana](https://discuss.elastic.co/u/Chetana)\ **Post date:** [March 22, 2013, 11:15am UTC](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/index-not-recognized-from-java-api/11257/8 "2013-03-22T11:15:49Z")
thanks both of you for quick responses... Now I added cluster and node in in settings .put("_node.name_ [http://node.name/](http://node.name/)", "mynode") .put("node.data", true) .put("_cluster.name_ [http://cluster.name/](http://cluster.name/)", "elasticsearch") I have also set just the node name as "mynode" in elasticsearch.yml so that by default it will consider "elasticsearch" cluster In log I see "mynode" as node in elasticsearch cluster and also curl -XGET \* [http://localhost:9200/\_cluster/nodes](http://localhost:9200/_cluster/nodes)\* [http://localhost:9200/\_cluster/nodes](http://localhost:9200/_cluster/nodes)confirms the same There are no errors I see below lines and XGET returns exists:false - [mynode] [test] creating index, cause [auto(index api)], shards [1]/[0], mappings -[mynode] [test] update\_mapping [asset] (dynamic) With all these changes I am still not able to index valid data When I use tranportclient instead of NodeClient data gets inserted. Do you advice using TransportClient instead of NodeClient even for single node cluster Which one (node or transport) is better when indexing is done from web application? Does the TransportClient have runtime overhead compared to NodeClient? For creating index both NodeClient and TransportClient works. Internally both use admin().IndicesAdminClient. But for adding index data only TransportClient works. Is there any bug in the code or only TransportClient is allowed to add the index?
