Thread:Extension talk:CirrusSearch/Can't create index

MW 1.22.2, REL1_22 releases of both Elastica and CirrusSearch. ElasticSearch 1.0. Single server, single instance of ElasticSearch.

I'm stuck trying to create my very first search index config. It seems to be pulling a null value for index.number_of_shards.
 * 1) php updateSearchIndexConfig.php

content index... Infering index identifier...devmediawiki_content_ Index exists so validating... Validating number of shards...PHP Notice: Undefined index: index.number_of_shards in /usr/local/devmediawiki-1.22.2/w/extensions/CirrusSearch/maintenance/updateOneSearchIndexConfig.php on line 183 is but should be 4...cannot correct! Number of shards is incorrect and cannot be changed without a rebuild. You can solve this problem by running this program again with either --startOver or --reindexAndRemoveOk. Make sure you understand the consequences of either choice.. This script will now continue to validate everything else.

The suggestions --startOver and --reindexAndRemoveOk don't work either.
 * 1) php updateSearchIndexConfig.php --startOver

content index... Infering index identifier...devmediawiki_content_ Blowing away index to start over...ok       Validating analyzers...different...cannot correct This script encountered an index difference that requires that the index be closed, modified, and then reopened. To allow this script to close the index run it with the --closeOk parameter and it'll close the index for the briefest possible time Note that the index will be unusable while closed.

And --closeOk doesn't seem to do anything.
