Hi,

I am evaluating Log Stash and Elastic Search for one of our requirement. I  
have to query data from Elastic Search in a Java Application. I am trying  
to use JEST to make a HTTP/REST call to ES. When I am trying to add a  
simple index in ES using Jest Client, I am  
getting "java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out" exception at the  
time of client execute statement.

```
    HttpClientConfig clientConfig = new 

```

HttpClientConfig.Builder("http://My\_Host:9200").readTimeout(20000).multiThreaded(true).build();  
JestClientFactory factory = new JestClientFactory();  
factory.setHttpClientConfig(clientConfig);

```
    JestHttpClient jestClient = (JestHttpClient) factory.getObject();

```

- 

```
   jestClient.execute(new CreateIndex.Builder("myIndex").build()); // 

```

Here I am getting Socket Read Timeout Exception.\*

Below is the full error stack trace -

Hello,

Does it work out of JEST, with a simple curl?
