Two (probably) documents within the same content-structrure couln't be indexed

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hallo dear all,

the last days I played a lot with Elastic Search and I'm really impressed.
But now I have a problem which seems a little bit strange.

I tried to index a document looking like this:

{"metadataContainerType":
{"xmlns:ns3":"***",
"title":"Eine Szene",
"id":{},
"format":"text/xml",
"created":"2011-12-16T20:32:56.580+01:00",
"lastModified":"2012-05-10T07:30:14.766+02:00",
"issued":"2011-12-16T20:32:56.580+01:00",
"revision":0,
"pid":"hdl:11858/00-1734-0000-0001-D89D-E",
"extent":38,
"availability":"public",
"permissions":"read",
"rightsHolder":{},
"dateOfCreation":{},
"genre":"prose"}}

and everything works fine!

But when I try index this file:

{"metadataContainerType":
{"xmlns:ns3":"***",
"title":"Des Dichters Freundin",
"id":{},
"format":"text/xml",
"created":"2011-12-16T20:35:44.239+01:00",
"lastModified":"2011-12-16T20:35:44.239+01:00",
"issued":"2011-12-16T20:35:44.239+01:00",
"revision":0,
"pid":"hdl:11858/00-1734-0000-0001-D978-7",
"extent":10767,
"availability":"public",
"permissions":{},
"dateOfCreation":{},
"agent":{},
"genre":{}}}

I get the error: "{"error":"MapperParsingException[object mapping for
[metadata] tried to parse as object, but got EOF, has a concrete value been
provided to it?]","status":400}"

When I remove the "metadataContainerType": it works!

So I am a little bit confused, can someone of you explain me this behavior?

JSON must have balanced braces. Add a closing brace and check your nesting.

But I think the braces are balanced. Maybe I overlook something.

The frist one.

{"metadataContainerType" :
{

        ......


  "genre" : "prose"

}

}

The second one:

{"metadataContainerType":
{
.......

 "genre" : {}

}
}

Hello to all again.

I figured out that the problem occurs when I add something in the "rightsholder" field.

"rightsholder" : {}, is ok! But

"rightsholder" : "me", is not ok.

Can somebody explain me this behaviour?
