Hi,

Using ES 0.17.0 everything works fine for indexing, searching, etc using  
java API, but i try to _get_ an object using this syntax

GetResponse response = searchClient.getClient().prepareGet("mycollection",  
"myobject", "1")  
.execute()  
.actionGet();  
and it fails

-

curl ends up using the same Java Get API. Can you upgrade to latest version  
and see if you still get it?
