Failed to parse field [location] of type [geo_shape]

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I have a single geojson file that Elastic refuses to ingest. The file opens fine in QGIS and online viewers and also is accepted by Geoserver when exported as a shapefile.

If I convert the polygons to lines then I can ingest it into Elastic but for whatever reason it does not work with the file as a multipolygon.

I cannot upload the actual file as it contains data that is not allowed to be shared but looking at the file it looks the same as the other multipolygon geojson I ingested without problems.

Error:

{
"error": {
"root_cause": [
{
"type": "mapper_parsing_exception",
"reason": "failed to parse field [location] of type [geo_shape]"
}
],

"reason": "failed to parse field [location] of type [geo_shape]",

}
},
"status": 400
}

Could you add which version of Elasticsearch you are using?

I'm using 7.2.

Hi,

I cannot reproduce it, could you share the stack-trace that you find in the logs. That will tell me where the error is happening.
