I have two ES installations with identical configuration. The following  
script\_fields query:

curl -XPOST localhost:9200/ -d '  
{"script\_fields": {"foo": {"script": "rint("32768")"}}}  
'

produces the following error on one node and not the other.

{

- timed\_out: false
- \_shards: {
  - total: 4
  - successful: 3
  - failed: 1
  - failures: [
    - {
      - status: 500
      - reason: CompileException[[Error: Value out of range.  
Value:"32768" Radix:10] [Near : {... rint("32768") ....}] ^ [Line: 1,  
Column: 1]]; nested: NumberFormatException[Value out of range.  
Value:"32768" Radix:10];  
}  
]  
}

- hits: {
  - total: 1591475
  - max\_score: 1
  - hits: []  
}

}

The failing node is attempting to coerce to a short, but I cannot find any  
reason for this behavior.

Is it possible that you have different JDK versions? I tried this on 1.7u25  
and it gave me the error, but not on 1.7u55.
