Hello, i have a problem if i search for a field mapping it as "index:  
not\_analyed"

This is my script that create the index:

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/contenidos](http://localhost:9200/contenidos)' -d '{  
"mappings": {  
"categoria": {  
"\_all": { "enabled": false },  
"\_source": { "compressed": true },  
"properties": {  
"name": { "type": "string", "index": "analyzed" },  
"alpha": { "type": "string", "index": "not\_analyzed" }  
}  
}  
}  
}'

Here the script that insert data:

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/contenidos/categoria/3371](http://localhost:9200/contenidos/categoria/3371)' -d '{ "name":  
"Circo del Sol", "parentId": "123" }'  
curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/contenidos/categoria/13571](http://localhost:9200/contenidos/categoria/13571)' -d '{ "name":  
"Circo del Sol Pepito", "parentId": "123" }'  
curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/contenidos/categoria/21855](http://localhost:9200/contenidos/categoria/21855)' -d '{ "name":  
"Circo del Sol Zaragoza", "parentId": "122" }'  
curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/contenidos/categoria/3750](http://localhost:9200/contenidos/categoria/3750)' -d '{ "name":  
"Circo del Sol - Corteo", "parentId": "125" }'

If i search for field "name" wthis this query all results have de same  
score:

{  
"explain": false,  
"size": "10",  
"query": {  
"match": {  
"name": "circo del sol"  
}  
}  
}

But if i do the same search, but with the field "alpha", i get not results,  
the query is:

{  
"explain": false,  
"size": "10",  
"query": {  
"match": {  
"alpha": "circo del sol"  
}  
}  
}

Please, if anyone has any idea how i do the search will be very gratefull.  
Thanks!!

Did you index something with content in alpha field?  
Your curl recreation does not show it.
