Index creation failing using Nest 7.6.1 with "Root mapping definition has unsupported parameters"

[Shahed_Aziz]

Hi,

Im trying to create index for a very simple class. My class :

    public class ElasticSearchDto
    {
        public string Id { get; set; }
        public string ApplicationNumber { get; set; }
    }

Using the following code to create my index (using Elasticsearch.Net.Aws as im using aws elastic search service)

    var httpConnection = new AwsHttpConnection();

    var pool = new SingleNodeConnectionPool(uri);
    var config = new ConnectionSettings(pool, httpConnection).DisableDirectStreaming().PrettyJson();
    var client = new ElasticClient(config);

    var result = client.Indices.Create("Test", x => x
        .Map<ElasticSearchDto>(m => m
            .Properties(ps => ps
                .Text(t => t.Name(n => n.Id))
                .Text(t => t.Name(n => n.ApplicationNumber)))
        )
    );

Also tried auto mapping, nothing work. Getting the following response.

# Request:
{"mappings":{"properties":{"id":{"type":"text"},"applicationNumber":{"type":"text"}}}}
# Response:
{
  "error" : {
    "root_cause" : [
      {
        "type" : "mapper_parsing_exception",
        "reason" : "Root mapping definition has unsupported parameters:  [applicationNumber : {type=text}] [id : {type=text}]"
      }
    ],
    "type" : "mapper_parsing_exception",
    "reason" : "Failed to parse mapping [properties]: Root mapping definition has unsupported parameters:  [applicationNumber : {type=text}] [id : {type=text}]",
    "caused_by" : {
      "type" : "mapper_parsing_exception",
      "reason" : "Root mapping definition has unsupported parameters:  [applicationNumber : {type=text}] [id : {type=text}]"
    }
  },
  "status" : 400
}

I will really appreciate some help on this.

Kind regards,

Shahed

NEST 7.6.1 is compatible with Elasticsearch 7.x.

What version of Elasticsearch are you using? It sounds like you might be using a version older than 7.x, based on the error message.

You are absolutely right. I was using an older version of local stack that was not spinning up with Elastic search version 7.x. Hence the issue. I updated my local stack. Thank you so much for your help
