Hi Joey, When using secondary indexes the index names must end in either `_int` for integer indexes or `_bin` for binary indexes in order for them to be recognised by the system [1]. All indexes must be set when you write the objects.
You must also ensure that the bucket you are writing the objects to are using either the memory or leveldb backends as bitcask does not support secondary indexes. Can you verify that this is the case? Are there any error messages in the logs? Which exact client version are you using?
