Latest fsriver plugin not working - elasticsearch

Question

I have issue with latest fsriver plugin.
I executed following command to index document
PUT _river/mynewriver2/_meta
{
"type": "fs",
"fs": {
"url": "d://tmp",
"update_rate": "1h",
"includes": [ "*.doc" , "*.xls", "*.txt" ]
},
"index": {
"index": "docs1",
"type": "doc1",
"bulk_size": 50
}
}
Inside d://tmp I have a simple txt file with person name.
But when I am executing the command to check document, I am not getting any document.
GET docs1/doc1/_search
output :
{
"took": 3,
"timed_out": false,
"_shards": {
"total": 5,
"successful": 5,
"failed": 0
},
"hits": {
"total": 0,
"max_score": null,
"hits": []
}
}
In elasticsearch console, I have following log:
[2015-05-23 12:40:40,645][INFO ][cluster.metadata ] [Ulysses] [.marvel-2015.05.23] update_mapping [cluster_stats] (dynamic)

I am running elasticsearch 1.5.2 in windows 7 ( 64 bit).

Since you're on a Windows system, it looks like the specified path is not correct according to the documentation, i.e. you should either use two back slashes instead of two forward slashes in your path OR a single forward slash. Can you try to delete your river and re-create it like this
PUT _river/mynewriver2/_meta
{
"type": "fs",
"fs": {
"url": "d:\\tmp",
"update_rate": "1h",
"includes": [ "*.doc" , "*.xls", "*.txt" ]
},
"index": {
"index": "docs1",
"type": "doc1",
"bulk_size": 50
}
}
or like this:
PUT _river/mynewriver2/_meta
{
"type": "fs",
"fs": {
"url": "d:/tmp",
"update_rate": "1h",
"includes": [ "*.doc" , "*.xls", "*.txt" ]
},
"index": {
"index": "docs1",
"type": "doc1",
"bulk_size": 50
}
}
