I have the following mapping in AWS Elasticsearch index

```auto
"Location": {
   "type": "geo_shape",
   "tree": "quadtree"
}

```

The following **geo\_shape** query works perfectly fine on my Kibana console

```auto
GET test/doc/_search
{
  "query": {
    "geo_shape": {
      "Location": {
        "shape": {
          "type": "point",
          "coordinates": [-122.28,37.83]
        },
              "relation": "intersects"
      }
    }
  }
}

```

I am trying to perform the similar query using **Elasticsearch Java High Level Rest Client 6.6.1**

```auto
//Create new CountRequest for index test
CountRequest countRequest = new CountRequest("test");
SearchSourceBuilder searchSourceBuilder = new SearchSourceBuilder();

QueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders.matchAllQuery();
Coordinate coordinate = new Coordinate(-122.28, 37.83);
List<Coordinate> coordinateList = new ArrayList<>();
coordinateList.add(coordinate);

// ElasticShapeBuilder is my class which extends the the abstract class org.elasticsearch.common.geo.builders.ShapeBuilder
ShapeBuilder shapeBuilder = new ElasticShapeBuilder(coordinateList);

QueryBuilder qb2 = QueryBuilders.geoShapeQuery("Location", shapeBuilder);
QueryBuilder qb3 = QueryBuilders.boolQuery().must(qb).filter(qb2);
searchSourceBuilder.query(qb3);
countRequest.source(searchSourceBuilder);
CountResponse countResponse = highRestClient.count(countRequest, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);

```

I get the following error

```auto
com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonGenerationException: Can not write a field name, expecting a value 
Suppressed: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to close the XContentBuilder 
Caused by: java.io.IOException: Unclosed object or array found

```

The query that you are building from your java code is not the same as what you are running through the kibana console. In the console you don't have a bool query , and a count request.

Also, can you share the content of your ElasticShapeBuilder , especially the toXContent method?

Thanks

Hey Luca,

Thanks for the response. As you suspected toXContent method in my ElasticShapeBuilder was the culprit.

After some googling around, I found out org.elasticsearch.common.geo.builders.PointBuilders class and it seems to perfectly fit my use case. So I removed my ElasticShapeBuilder class and replaced it with PointBuilders class.

You can close this ticket now.

Thanks,  
Ganesh
