Hi,

I just upgraded from 0.20.x to 0.90.3 and when I restarted ES all of my  
indices are reported as missing (404).

The log shows that the indices were found during startup:

[2013-11-28 15:54:45,430][DEBUG][index.gateway] [Aftershock]  
[sb\_posts\_2013\_11\_21][0] starting recovery from local ...

[2013-11-28 15:54:45,447][DEBUG][index.gateway] [Aftershock]  
[sb\_posts\_2013\_11\_21][0] recovery completed from [local], took [17ms]

But they don't show up in stats:

curl '[http://localhost:9200/\_stats](http://localhost:9200/_stats)'

{"ok":true,"\_shards":{"total":0,"successful":0,"failed":0},"\_all":{"primaries":{},"total":{}},"indices":{}}

My elasticsearch.yml file sets the data path:

path.data: /data/elasticsearch

But if I create a new index, it gets created under ES\_HOME/data as though  
path.data is not set.

Any hints for where I can look to figure out why my indexes are not being  
used?

Thanks in advance.

Kevin
