Hi,

I'm very newbie to ElasticSearch. I use Java API to build the bool query as  
following:

{  
"bool" : {  
"must" : [ {  
"text" : {  
"content" : {  
"query" : "404 get",  
"type" : "phrase",  
"operator" : "AND"  
}  
}  
}, {  
"terms" : {  
"host" : ["localhost"]  
}  
} ]  
}  
}

I got no doc if doing the query with Java API but doing the query with  
curl, some docs returned.

```
SearchResponse response = client.prepareSearch(getIndices())
                .setSearchType(SearchType.DFS_QUERY_THEN_FETCH)
                .setQuery(query).addFields(returnFields()).setFrom(from)
                .setSize(size).execute().actionGet();

```

What's wrong with my java code?

Thanks,  
Duy

try this instead:

QueryBuilder query = boolQuery().must(textQuery("content", "404 get"  
).type(Type.PHRASE).operator(Operator.AND)).should(termsQuery("host",  
"localhost"));

SearchResponse response = client.prepareSearch(getIndices())  
.setSearchType(SearchType.DFS\_QUERY\_THEN\_FETCH)  
.setQuery(query).addFields(returnFields()).setFrom(from)  
.setSize(size).execute().actionGet();  
Cheers
