Hi,

Can I use solaris 10 as an base operation system to install elasticsearch ?  
It will be a production setup which will have 3 nodes in elasticseach cluster.

While some users are running elasticsearch on Solaris 10, this is not one of the [officially supported platforms](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions/matrix).

I'm trying to run Elasticsearch on Solaris 10 and have been able to install it and create indexes.  
However when I try to load a mapping, via either curl or the Perl interface it fails with:  
{  
"error" : {  
"root\_cause" : [  
{  
"type" : "mapper\_parsing\_exception",  
"reason" : "failed to parse, document is empty"  
}  
],  
"type" : "mapper\_parsing\_exception",  
"reason" : "failed to parse, document is empty"  
},  
"status" : 400

Have any other Solaris users experienced this issue?
