Hello,

using elasticsearch version 1.5.2 and index was created with ttl enable and  
\_timestamp store as of following:

curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/\_mappings?pretty](http://localhost:9200/_mappings?pretty)'  
{  
"myindex" : {  
"mappings" : {  
"mytype1" : {  
"\_timestamp" : {  
"enabled" : true,  
"store" : true  
},  
"\_ttl" : {  
"enabled" : true  
},  
"properties" : { }  
},  
"mytype2" : {  
"\_timestamp" : {  
"enabled" : true,  
"store" : true  
},  
"\_ttl" : {  
"enabled" : true  
},  
"properties" : { }  
}  
}  
}  
}

however, when a "multi field" to type mytype1

curl -s -XPUT 'localhost:9200/myindex/mytype1/\_mapping' -d '  
{  
"mytype1" : {  
"properties": {  
"mytype1\_sub" : {  
"type": "string",  
"index" : "analyzed",  
"fields" : {  
"untouched" : { "type": "string", "index" : "not\_analyzed" }  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}'

{"error":"MergeMappingException[Merge failed with failures {[mapper  
[\_timestamp] has different store values]}]","status":400}

What went wrong? The index created without \_timestamp, it works for the  
multi field, can anyone explain?

Jason
