Revisiting query parse (no field after start_object) errors

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

This query:

{
"from": 0,
"size": 30,
"query": {
"term": {
"sbOf": "TypeType"
}
}
}

is giving me fits. I recently migrated from 0.90 to 1.2.2 and went through
this with my node.js client, got many ideas in this forum and solved the
problem. The query above works fine from node.js, but fails (listing
below) from the java client running against the same index as the node
client.

I realize this is a potentially high-dimensional issue with many actors
other than the query string in play. Just looking for hints.

I have tested with and without "query". No difference.

Many thanks in advance
Jack

Updating my query.

I ran the same test just using this query:
{
"term" : {
"sbOf" : "TypeType"
}
}

with absolutely no failure.

But, if I put from and size in front of it, with or without "query", there
is a failure.
So, this query does run, though from and size are meaningless
{
"term": {
"sbOf": "TypeType"
},
"from": 0,
"size": 30
}

The final solution appears to be to use the SearchBuilder to set from and
size, code like this:

SearchRequestBuilder builder = prepareSearch(index)
.setSearchType(SearchType.QUERY_THEN_FETCH)
.setTypes(types)
.setQuery(queryString)
.setFrom(start);
if (count > -1)
builder.setSize(count);

Interesting thought:
With the NodeJS client, folding from and size into the query string works
just fine; in the Java client, it fails rather spectacularly.

No clue why, but it's bound to be something in my code...
