Hi, I'm working through [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/4.1/tutorial-visualizing.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/4.1/tutorial-visualizing.html) and I'm hitting a divergence from the tutorial. I can see the log data in the indices matching logstash-2015.05\* when I browse in Discover, and I can see the schema under settings. When I start the tutorial section "Next, weโ€™re going to make a tile map chart...", I have the following issues: - I don't see time selector the tutorial says should be in the upper right. It's just a black bar. - I'm getting an error "No Compatible Fields: The "logstash-2015.05\*" index pattern does not contain any of the following field types: geo\_point" when I try the GeoCoordinates bucket. Have I missed a step or set something incorrectly? Thanks, -Scott For reference, here's the schema shown under Settings for the logstash-2015.05\* index pattern: referer string agent string relatedContent.og:type string relatedContent.og:image:width string relatedContent.og:description string geo.dest string relatedContent.twitter:image string geo.coordinates.lon number relatedContent.twitter:card string utc\_time date clientip string relatedContent.og:image:height string host string machine.ram number links string phpmemory number geo.coordinates.lat number ip string relatedContent.og:image string relatedContent.article:modified\_time date relatedContent.url string relatedContent.article:tag string spaces string headings string \_source \_source ---

It's because the geo data hasn't been mapped as a proper geo point, and I can't see a combined point in your mappings either. Do you have a `geoip.location` field? ---

Not that I see. I'm using the data set provided at a link in the tutorial. Seems like a cruel trick to play n a "Your First Ten Minutes With..." walk through. /โ˜น ---

@Scott_Brown I'm really sorry about the bad experience with this tutorial โ˜น We only discovered this issue recently and are working on fixing that: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/4448](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/4448) ---

Mr. Brown: Sorry for your bad experience with the tutorial! With current versions of Elasticsearch, this dataset needs a geolocation mapping to work properly. To clear the data from a previous import, execute the following commands: > curl -XDELETE [http://localhost:9200/logstash-2015.05.18](http://localhost:9200/logstash-2015.05.18) > curl -XDELETE [http://localhost:9200/logstash-2015.05.19](http://localhost:9200/logstash-2015.05.19) > curl -XDELETE [http://localhost:9200/logstash-2015.05.20](http://localhost:9200/logstash-2015.05.20) Before importing the logs.jsonl file to Elasticsearch, establish the mappings with the following command: > curl -XPUT [http://localhost:9200/logstash-2015.05.18](http://localhost:9200/logstash-2015.05.18) -d ' > { > "mappings" : { > "log" : { > "properties" : { > "geo" : { > "properties" : { > "coordinates" : { > "type" : "geo\_point" > } > } > } > } > } > } > } > '; Repeat that mapping for the other two dates, 2015-05-19 and 2015-05-20, then import logs.jsonl according to the tutorial's instructions. You may need to refresh your indexes by navigating to **Settings \> Indices** in the Kibana UI, selecting the `logstash-*` index pattern, and clicking the yellow **Refresh** button. I'll update the documentation to reflect this step soonest. Paul Echeverri Senior Technical Writer ---

> [@Paul\_Echeverri](#): > > "properties" : {"geo" : { "properties" : { "coordinates" : { "type" : "geo\_point" } } } } Hi Paul, Should it be "coordinates" or "location". The ES 2.0 documentation says that it should be "location". Thanks, Zak ---

Zak: I'm in the process of revising the tutorial to work with ES2.0 and I'll be sure to resolve this. I'll update you when the new doc posts. Paul E. ---

Mr. Siddiqui: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/5354](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/5354) updates the Tutorial. That part of the mapping is an arbitrary label, and you can call it whatever you like as long as it's consistent with your data set. In any case, stricter mapping requirements in ES2.0 have resulted in updated mappings and this one is no longer correct. Best, Paul E. ---
