Error with scriptfield in visualization

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hello, everybody,

i have created a scripted field and whenever i want to visualize it i get an error:

[esaggs] > Request to Elasticsearch failed: {"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"aggregation_execution_exception","reason":"Unsupported script value [null], expected a number, date, or boolean"}],"type":"search_phase_execution_exception","reason":"all shards failed","phase":"query","grouped":true,"failed_shards":[{"shard":0,"index":"uberagent","node":"52tn91DERquwvDXrqkww_w","reason":{"type":"aggregation_execution_exception","reason":"Unsupported script value [null], expected a number, date, or boolean"}}]},"status":500}

The following settings have been set for the Scripted field:

If I understand it correctly, will a string be returned to me? If yes why? I have declared it as number.

What I find funny is that I also created a script field last week and put it into a visualization and it worked. If I try it again today it does not work.

I work with the Kibana version 7.5.2

Thanks for your help in advance.

This error typically occurs when a script throws an exception. I suspect some documents are sparse, i.e. in some cases that field isn't defined.

Does this work?

if (doc.containsKey('ProcCPUTimeMs') {
  return doc['ProcCPUTimeMs'].value / 100.0
}

When I use the code I get the following error message:

}
}
]
}

As you say, in many documents this field does not exist or it is empty. When I check the field with the following command: if (doc['ProcCPUTimeMs'].size() ==0) return ''"; the script works but I get the above error when I try to visualize the data.

Or do I always have to check in the script if the field ProcCPUTimeMs is present?

Does anyone have a solution or suggestions?
