Hello,

From what I understand from these issues[https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/search?q=multilinestring&ref=cmdform&type=Issues](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/search?q=multilinestring&ref=cmdform&type=Issues) multilinstring  
is supported, also I think that when i built from source i could index  
multilinestring objects.  
But with version 0.90.5 these kind of shape seems not to be supported (  
error : nested: UnsupportedOperationException[ShapeType [multilinestring]  
not supported )

Does anyone have informations on that ?

Thanks

Hey,

sorry for not catching this. The big geo refactoring was only done in  
master. Part of this refactoring was adding support for multilinestring. So  
the 0.90 do not have it included.
