Can you show the body of the mapping?

{
"euronews": {
"aliases": {},
"mappings": {
"mytable": {
"properties": {
"body": {
"type": "text",
"analyzer": "std_english"
},
"lineNo": {
"type": "long"
}
}
}
}

You don't need to provide the index name in the body, and you've got a few extra close braces in there as well. Try this:

PUT euronews
{
  "aliases": {
  }, 
  "mappings": {
    "mytable": {
      "properties": {
        "body": {
          "type": "text",
          "analyzer": "std_english"
        },
        "lineNo": {
          "type": "long"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

I had to change the analyser to english but that created the index on my machine.

Hope this helps.

Are you indexing a document or creating a mapping? In the first post, the URL looks like you're indexing a document but the error made me think you're creating a mapping using the wrong API.

If you're indexing, can you show the body of the document you're trying to index? There's likely a problem in the body of the request.
