NullPointerException on IndexStatus

Michel_Conrad · September 29, 2011, 7:55am

Hi,
after restarting the cluster, I had some indices not starting up
correctly. When querying for the index status I have been
getting NullPointerExceptions. Closing and reopening solved the issue.
I have just been wondering why it might have appeared.

Can you gist the exception logged on elasticsearch side?
