I'm trying to setup ES in WinXP box using the PHP class from here  
[http://hublog.hubmed.org/archives/001907.html](http://hublog.hubmed.org/archives/001907.html)

For all the method with GET (query , check status, etc) it worked but  
when using PUT (creating index) it produced the following error

===========================  
[http://localhost:9200/putusan/array(1)](http://localhost:9200/putusan/array(1)) { ["method"]=\> string(3)  
"PUT" }  
A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: file\_get\_contents([http://localhost:9200/putusan/](http://localhost:9200/putusan/))  
[function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: HTTP request  
failed! HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request

Filename: libraries/Elasticsearch.php

# Line Number: 15

What I don't understand is how come the get method worked but not with  
the PUT method  
I've also tried installing curl and run it in command prompt and I got  
the same result  
the GET method for Status and Query worked, but not with the PUT.

Is this something with the ES or just with the PHP or CURL issue?

Anyone can shed some light about this?

Can you provide the actual PUT request that you used?

It is likely that the syntax is wrong.

The equivalent using curl on the command line (at least in Unix - can't  
speak for Windows) would be:

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/putusan/ma/8b076cb020b8bf19bc4aab8583bb080b](http://localhost:9200/putusan/ma/8b076cb020b8bf19bc4aab8583bb080b)' -d '  
{  
"keywords" : "halo"  
}  
'

Does that work?

Looking at your error message:

your JSON is malformed.

After trying to port the class using curl in PHP  
and succeed in several method but failure in others  
I've decided that I'll go for the linux environment.

Anyway thanks for the help Clint
