really new in elastic world, and install 2.4 + mapper-attachments plugin.

try index documnts with sample:  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/master/mapper-attachments-helloworld.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/master/mapper-attachments-helloworld.html)

but search found nothing  
POST /trying-out-mapper-attachments/person/\_search  
{  
"query": {  
"query\_string": {  
"query": "ipsum"  
}}}

if I add regualr field like :

POST /trying-out-mapper-attachments/person/3?refresh  
{  
"cv": "e1xydGYxXGFuc2kNCkxvcmVtIGlwc3VtIGRvbG9yIHNpdCBhbWV0DQpccGFyIH0=",  
"firstName" : "dror"  
}  
then "dror" found, but on attachment field its not working.

can not found any logs, and even dont knoew if problem is with Index nor Query

The first post you sent refers to `trying-out-mapper-attachments` index and `person` type.  
Here you are showing an index named `stackoverflow` and a `post` type.

It's wrong.

Make sure you read [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/current/mapper-attachments-helloworld.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/current/mapper-attachments-helloworld.html)
