GeoIP doesn't work on ELK stack

[vuxuanlai (Vu X Lai)]

Hi there,
Im using ELK stack to parse nginx log and visualize it on Kibana with geoip on Codinate map.
But i got the error as below when using Elasticsearch version 5.5.2, but not Elasticsearch version 5.4.1:
No Compatible Fields: The "filebeat-*" index pattern does not contain any of the following field types: geo_point

In ES ver 5.4.1:

"geoip" : {
	"properties" : {
	  "continent_name" : {
		"type" : "keyword",
		"ignore_above" : 1024
	  },
	  "country_iso_code" : {
		"type" : "keyword",
		"ignore_above" : 1024
	  },
	  "location" : {
		"type" : "geo_point"
	  }
	}
  },

In ES ver 5.5.2, i can't find value "geo_point", also field "location"

Could someone help me to understand for this case?

FYI we’ve renamed ELK to the Elastic Stack, otherwise Beats feels left out

Did you do an upgrade, or is this a separate stack? Is that code the mapping? What does the 5.5.2 mapping look like? What does your filebeat config look like?

The following is my logstash configuration:

input {
	beats {
	       port => 5044
	       client_inactivity_timeout => 120
	}
}
filter {
	grok {
		match => {
			"message" => '%{IPORHOST:node_elk_ip} - - \[%{HTTPDATE:[request_info][time]}\] "%{WORD:[request_info][method]} %{DATA:[request_info][API]} HTTP/%{NUMBER:[request_info][http_version]}" %{NUMBER:[request_info][response_status]} %{NUMBER:[request_info][bytes]} "%{DATA:[request_info][referrer]}" "%{DATA:agent}" "%{IP:[user_request][user_IP]}" "%{NUMBER:[user_request][request_time]}" "%{DATA:[user_request][upstream_response_time]}" "%{DATA:[user_request][user_role]}"'
		}
		remove_field => "message"
	}

	geoip {
		source => "[user_request][user_IP]"
		target => "geoip"
	}
	useragent {
		source => "agent"
		target => "user_agent"
		remove_field => "agent"
	}
    
}
output {
	#stdout { codec => rubydebug }
	elasticsearch {
		hosts => ["localhost:9200"]
		#sniffing => true
		manage_template => false
		index => "%{[@metadata][beat]}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
		document_type => "%{[@metadata][type]}"
	}
}

Can you share a typical document that is indexed in elasticsearch?

This issue was resoleved. I changed index from "%{[@metadata][beat]}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}" to "logstash-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}".

Thank you .
