Hi, I've just updated to 0.90.10 from 0.90.5, and I'm having some issues with my unit tests. Here's the outline of the test TransportClient c = new TransportClient(settings).addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress("localhost", 9300)); SearchResponse res = c.prepareSearch().setIndices(TEST\_INDEX).addFields( LIST\_OF\_FIELDS).setQuery(QueryBuilders.matchQuery("id", "\<\>")). execute().actionGet(); // do the update UpdateResponse updateRes = prepareUpdateRequestForDocument(indexName,document ).setScript("\<\< UPDATE SCRIPT \>\>").execute().actionGet(); // via REST API, I see the modified document hence the update is applied. // sleep for a while and repeat search SearchResponse res = c.prepareSearch().setIndices(TEST\_INDEX).addFields( LIST\_OF\_FIELDS).setQuery(QueryBuilders.matchQuery("id", "\<\>")). execute().actionGet(); SearchHit hit = res.getHits().getAt(0); // the document returned in the second search is not the updated document. assert(check document) -\> fails even if I issue client.admin().indices().prepareRefresh(TEST\_INDEX).execute().actionGet(); or client.admin().indices().prepareFlush(TEST\_INDEX).execute().actionGet(); Why am I receiving the non-updated old document from the Java API where I immediately see the updated document via rest api? What am I missing? Thanks in advance, Ukyo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hey, can you check the update response, if it was successful? Usually a refresh should be sufficient? You are testing the REST API while you are running this test and the REST works and this test doesnt? Also can you provide a complete snippet including indexation and all your calls? The above code doesnt compile and contains many placeholders, so we cannot a complete picture of what you are doing.. A gist would be great!

Hi Alex, It turns out that it was my fault. But this is a tricky one, I'd like to explain what happened for others to benefit. The issue was that I was not storing the field that I was updating. Therefore the getValue was returning empty from the Java API. The reason that I was able to see the updated document via REST api is that I was seeing the \_source field. So I went back to my mappings, and corrected the store attribute on the field. Bottom line is \_source field already contains the whole document, there's little point in storing individual fields in Lucene other than highlight purposes. Thanks for your answer.
