The query String in Kibana is : `system:APC AND host: F12*R2R* AND message:"Turn to Phase [F12P7]"`, and I want to query through Restful API like below:

```
			String bodycontent="{"
				+" \"_source\": [\"@timestamp\",\"eqpid\",\"lotid\",\"stageid\"],"
				+" \"query\": {"
				+" \"bool\":{"
				+"	\"must\":[{"
				+" \"query_string\" : {"
				+" \"query\": \"(system:APC) AND (host:F12*R2R*) AND (message:\*Turn to Phase [F12P7]\*)\"}"
				+" },{"
				+" \"range\":{"
				+" \"@timestamp\":{"
				+" \"gte\":\""+start+"\","
				+"	\"lte\":\""+end+"\"}"
				+" }"
				+ "}]}},"
				+" \"sort\" : [{\"@timestamp\" : { \"order\" : \"desc\" }}]"
				+"}";

```

I have tested below code is work(delete `AND (message:\*Turn to Phase [F12P7]\*)`):

```
    			String bodycontent="{"
				+" \"_source\": [\"@timestamp\",\"eqpid\",\"lotid\",\"stageid\"],"
				+" \"query\": {"
				+" \"bool\":{"
				+"	\"must\":[{"
				+" \"query_string\" : {"
				+" \"query\": \"(system:APC) AND (host:F12*R2R*)\"}"
				+" },{"
				+" \"range\":{"
				+" \"@timestamp\":{"
				+" \"gte\":\""+start+"\","
				+"	\"lte\":\""+end+"\"}"
				+" }"
				+ "}]}},"
				+" \"sort\" : [{\"@timestamp\" : { \"order\" : \"desc\" }}]"
				+"}";

```

but HTTP response 500 error code, the message raw data is like below:

XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXX XX XXX  
XXXXXXXXXXXXX XX XXXX  
XXXXXXXX  
XXX Ack=0 Description="No valid MAPId [LGSQ123] exists. Turn to Phase [F12P7]" XXXX  
XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX XXXX

How could I query the specified string in the message?  
thanks in advance !

that message does not look like an Elasticsearch exception, please check what the Elasticsearch side is returning to the client and share it here (must be JSON).
