Update API Problem

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello,
I'm new to elasticsearch. testing logstash,redis,elasticsearch and kibana.
Version - elasticsearch-0.20.5.

For now, I'm doing this operations:

  1. I'm searching specific messages with elastic api.
  2. Sending email with the results.
  3. Taking index,id,type and trying to update the document and add a new tag
    named "reported".

Running curl through php:
*
http://xxx.xxx.xxx:9200/logstash-2013.03.27/xxx_log-type/vG2dLak5TXSzW1jKlitOGg/_update
*
POST data is: array("script" => "ctx._source.tags += tag", "params" =>
array("tag" => "reported"))* - this is encoded to json, looks same as the
documentation,*

I'm getting this
error {"error":"ElasticSearchIllegalArgumentException[failed to execute
script]; nested: PropertyAccessException[[Error: could not access: tags; in
class: java.util.LinkedHashMap]\n[Near : {... ctx._source.tags+tag ....}]\n
^\n[Line: 1, Column: 1]]; ","status":400}

I'm probably missing something, any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

Hey,

can you provide the real JSON used in the request - just to make sure there
are no strange errors leading to this exception? Also can you check the
logs for a more verbose logging?

Hey,
For now I just added a new field instead of tag.
Let me know if you need any information from me to resolve it.

b) your index mapping
c) Your update query
