I have a default-mapping.json file working fine in Ubuntu by placing it in /usr/local/elasticsearch/config/. I also have Centos install of ES, but I can't figure out where to put the default-mapping.json file. I have tried /usr/share/elasticsearch/config/ and /etc/elasticsearch/config/. Neither cause the mapping to take affect. Could have something to do with naming the cluster something other than elasticsearch? There is no /usr/local/elasticsearch/ on the Centos system.

Solved -- The directory to place default-mapping.json in was /etc/elasticsearch/ On Monday, December 30, 2013 10:10:37 AM UTC-7, Jay Wilson wrote: > I have a default-mapping.json file working fine in Ubuntu by placing it in > /usr/local/elasticsearch/config/. > > I also have Centos install of ES, but I can't figure out where to put the > default-mapping.json file.
