Did you download elasticsearch from elasticsearch website ?  
Use the right package and don't download sources from github unless you want to compile the project.

Hi  
I am new to the list and to elasticsearch

I installed the plugins manually, following this tutorial  
(he explains how to install \_head, a web interface; installing \_river is  
similar)

Hi Fatima, Thanks for your help, One question : Where do i put that codes  
to create client etc.

01//Create Client  
02Settings settings = ImmutableSettings.settingsBuilder().put("cluster.name"  
,"localtestsearch").build();  
03TransportClient transportClient = new TransportClient(settings);  
04transportClient = transportClient.addTransportAddress(new  
InetSocketTransportAddress("localhost",9300));  
05return (Client) transportClient;  
06  
07//Create Index and set settings and mappings  
08  
09CreateIndexRequestBuilder createIndexRequestBuilder =  
client.admin().indices().prepareCreate(indexName);  
10createIndexRequestBuilder.execute().actionGet();  
11  
12//Add documents  
13IndexRequestBuilder indexRequestBuilder =  
client().prepareIndex(indexName, documentType, documentId);  
14//build json object  
15XContentBuilder contentBuilder =  
jsonBuilder().startObject().prettyPrint();  
16contentBuilder.field("name", "jai");  
17contentBuilder.stopObject();  
18indexRequestBuilder.setSource(contentBuilder);  
19IndexResponse response = indexRequestBuilder .execute().actionGet();  
20  
21//Get document  
22GetRequestBuilder getRequestBuilder = client().prepareGet(indexName,  
type, id);  
23getRequestBuilder.setFields(new String{"name"});  
24GetResponse response = getRequestBuilder.execute().actionGet();  
25String name = response.field("name").getValue().toString();

Should i put this in elasticsearch config file or write in java file ? I'm  
sorry i don't know java and other programming languages.

if you really want to use that API, you will need to create a java class to  
put that code.

if all you want to do is to index text documents (that is all i want) there  
is another solution.  
i looked at the app that you mentioned ( scrutmydocs )

1. install glassfish  
download glassfish server from  
[https://glassfish.java.net/downloads/3.0.1-final.html](https://glassfish.java.net/downloads/3.0.1-final.html)  
open terminal  
go to download directory  
Make the downloaded executable, by typing in:  
chmod +x glassfish-3.0.1-unix-ml.sh  
Run the script using the command  
./glassfish-3.0.1-unix-ml.sh  
i installed it in:  
/usr/share/glassfishv3/bin/asadmin  
tell the glassfish install program where your jdk is, mine (Ubuntu) was:  
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/bin

2. run glassfish  
cd /usr/share/glassfishv3/bin  
./asadmin start-domain domain1

3. install scrutmydocs  
you can download the app as a war from  
[http://www.scrutmydocs.org/](http://www.scrutmydocs.org/)  
go to  
[http://localhost:4848/common/index.jsf](http://localhost:4848/common/index.jsf)  
deploy the app using the option on the left

4. run scrutmydocs  
[http://localhost:8080/scrutmydocs-0.2.0/](http://localhost:8080/scrutmydocs-0.2.0/)  
once the app opens, load the docs (a button at upper-right)  
then run a query and it works

Bye
