Even though I did deleted the previous index and created a new one still I am getting the same error Let me repeat what I did: 1. Deleted the index 2. Run the script in dev tools 3. Created the index with same name Still the error is there ---

Show us how you add the template through dev tools. Then copy a sample document and index it into a new index that matches the template using dev tools. Then show us the result. ---

Please format your code, logs or configuration files using `` icon as explained in [this guide](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21) and not the citation button. It will make your post more readable. Or use markdown style like: ```` ``` CODE ``` ```` This is the icon to use if you are not using markdown format: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/e/7e6e239431ec2d71cbf1beef741f2e93e7cc762c.jpg) There's a live preview panel for exactly this reasons. Lots of people read these forums, and many of them will simply skip over a post that is difficult to read, because it's just too large an investment of their time to try and follow a wall of badly formatted text. If your goal is to get an answer to your questions, it's in your interest to make it as easy to read and understand as possible. Please update your post. Could you provide a full recreation script as described in [About the Elasticsearch category](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21). It will help to better understand what you are doing. Please, try to keep the example as simple as possible. A full reproduction script will help readers to understand, reproduce and if needed fix your problem. It will also most likely help to get a faster answer. Here you are pasting a line of logs, not a JSON document that someone can index to check your template. Also note `logstash_apchelogs` sounds may be a bad index name. May be it does not match your actual index name. ---

The template specifies the geo point field to be `location` at the base of the document but the document you showed us stored the geo point in `geoip.location` instead, which does not match the mapping. Either correct the mapping or the documents so they match. ---
