curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/twitter/tweet/1](http://localhost:9200/twitter/tweet/1)' -d '  
{  
"tweet" : {  
"user" : "arden",  
"sortid": "2",  
"postDate" : "2009-11-15T14:12:12",  
"message" : "trying out Elastic Search"  
}  
}'

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/twitter/tweet/1](http://localhost:9200/twitter/tweet/1)' -d '  
{  
"tweet" : {  
"user" : "arden",  
"sortid": "1",  
"postDate" : "2009-11-15T14:12:12",  
"message" : "trying out Elastic Search"  
}  
}'

curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/twitter/tweet/\_search?q=+user:tujiao](http://localhost:9200/twitter/tweet/_search?q=+user:tujiao)  
+sortid:2&default\_operator=AND&fields=user,sortid'

but the search results are:

{"\_shards":{"total":5,"successful":5,"failed":0},"hits":{"total":  
2,"hits":[{"\_index":"twitter","\_type":"tweet","\_id":"5"},  
{"\_index":"twitter","\_type":"tweet","\_id":"9"}]}}

that the user,sortid fields not in search results?

Not sure I understand the example. You index two documents with id 1, and  
you run a query and get back ids 5 and 9? Have they been indexed with the  
proper data? Also, are you by any change disabling \_source in the mapping?
