I am trying to import a csv file into elastic search and for a file it is  
working fine and if I change the CSV file it is not working then.  
It is gettig renamed from book.csv to book.csv.processing but index is not  
creating in elastic search.

i have wrote the follwing code

{  
"type": "csv",  
"csv\_file": {  
"folder": "E:\",  
"filename": "book.csv",  
"poll": "5m",  
"fields": [  
"id",  
"cat",  
"name",  
"price",  
"inStock",  
"author",  
"series\_t",  
"sequence\_i",  
"genre\_s"  
],  
"field\_separator": ",",  
"escape\_character": ";",  
"quote\_character": "'"  
},  
"index": {  
"index": "student",  
"type": "csv\_row",  
"bulk\_size": 200,  
"bulk\_threshold": 50  
}  
}
