I define a custom analyzer in my template: [https://gist.github.com/2764547](https://gist.github.com/2764547) but when I make a call to create an index based on the template: > I get the following: $ ./create\_business\_location\_index.sh {"error":"MapperParsingException[mapping [location]]; nested: MapperParsingExcep tion[Analyzer [skedulerAnalyzer1] not found for field [business\_location-name]]; ","status":400} Should this work? If so, am I configuring it correctly? (Comments on the custom analysis welcome but be warned, it might not be sensible as I'm just starting to play around with it) Thanks! ## Michael Sick ---

The analysis section should go under settings, it should work then...

hi # I created a template like { "template\_1": { "template": "temp\*", "settings": { "analysis": { "filter": { "gram\_stemmer": { "type": "stemmer", "name": "english" } }, "analyzer": { "auto\_analyzer": { "type": "pattern", "pattern": "[{}()|\]+", "filter": "lowercase" } } } }, "mappings": { "type1": { "properties": { "sources": { "type": "string", "analyzer": "auto\_analyzer" } } } } } } =================================================== but when I entered $ curl -XPUT localhost:9200/temp1 I still got "error":"MapperParsingException[mapping [type1]]; nested: MapperParsingException Analyzer [auto\_analyzer] not found for field [sources]]; ","status":400} Did I have sth wrong? Thanks very much ---

Ran into the same problem today. The solution is you're missing the "index" between the "setting" and the "analysis". So the json should be: template\_1": { "template": "temp\*", "settings": { **"index" : {** "analysis": { I found the answer in this thread: [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/elasticsearch/index$20template$20mapping$20analyzer$20not$20found/elasticsearch/X\_YRiaV6zLg/7967m7AOEGQJ](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/elasticsearch/index%2420template%2420mapping%2420analyzer%2420not%2420found/elasticsearch/X_YRiaV6zLg/7967m7AOEGQJ) ---
