Error when loading the json file with the curl command

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
8

I can't reproduce this. Here a copy of a terminal session showing a sequence of curl commands run on a completely fresh Elasticsearch 5.6.8 installation, in which the document is indexed with no errors:

Put template with mapping

$ curl -v -XPUT 'http://localhost:9200/_template/packets' -H 'Content-type: application/json' --data-binary $'{"mappings":{"pcap_file":{"dynamic":"false","properties":{"layers":{"properties":{"ip":{"properties":{"ip_ip_dst":{"type":"ip"},"ip_ip_src":{"type":"ip"}}},"udp":{"properties":{"udp_udp_srcport":{"type":"integer"},"udp_udp_dstport":{"type":"integer"}}},"frame":{"properties":{"frame_frame_protocols":{"type":"keyword"},"frame_frame_len":{"type":"long"}}}}},"timestamp":{"type":"date"}}}},"settings":{"number_of_shards":1,"number_of_replicas":0},"template":"packets-*"}'

Show head and tail of file

(sorry, can't show it all, it pushes this message over the size limit)

$ head -c200 singolopacchetto.json 
{"index":{"_index":"packets-2018-04-25","_type":"pcap_file"}}
{"layers":{"frame":{"frame.interface_id":"0","frame.interface_id_tree":{"frame.interface_name":"any"},"frame.encap_type":"25","frame.time"
$ tail -c50 singolopacchetto.json 
:{"json.value.number":"10","json.key":"size"}}}}}

Checksum contents of file

$ shasum singolopacchetto.json
4d603b226395c66b88747f66044b5e47436a2aa9  singolopacchetto.json

Put document using given command line
