Hi, I just tried to follow the reference guide with load data and get an error: No handler found for uri [/'localhost:9200/bank/account/\_bulk?pretty%27%20--data-binary%20@accounts.json] and method [POST] Is there an error in the code of the reference guide or did I put data in the wrong directory? So, what does he mean with "our current directory"? Many thanks for any help Jochen Rieseberg You can download the sample dataset (accounts.json) from here [https://github.com/bly2k/files/blob/master/accounts.zip?raw=true](https://github.com/bly2k/files/blob/master/accounts.zip?raw=true). Extract it to our current directory and let’s load it into our cluster as follows: curl -XPOST 'localhost:9200/bank/account/\_bulk?pretty' --data-binary @accounts.json curl 'localhost:9200/\_cat/indices?v' -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hi Jochen, The command in the reference guide looks good to me. It seems that you copy/paste the command with the HTML encoded chars of the documentation. You might try without copy/paste from the doc. Also, I think "our current directory" stands for "the directory where the accounts.json file is located". -- Tanguy Le mercredi 1 octobre 2014 15:47:08 UTC+2, Jochen Rieseberg a écrit : > Hi, > > I just tried to follow the reference guide with load data and get an error: > > No handler found for uri > [/'localhost:9200/bank/account/\_bulk?pretty%27%20--data-binary%20@accounts.json] > and method [POST] > > Is there an error in the code of the reference guide or did I put data in > the wrong directory? > > So, what does he mean with "our current directory"? > > Many thanks for any help > > Jochen Rieseberg > > You can download the sample dataset (accounts.json) from here > [https://github.com/bly2k/files/blob/master/accounts.zip?raw=true](https://github.com/bly2k/files/blob/master/accounts.zip?raw=true). > Extract it to our current directory and let’s load it into our cluster as > follows: > > curl -XPOST 'localhost:9200/bank/account/\_bulk?pretty' --data-binary @accounts.json > curl 'localhost:9200/\_cat/indices?v' -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
