Kibana Documentation Not Correct

[scvdance]

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/getting-started.html

In the getting started doc above, the CURL commands to create mapping for index logstash-* does not work. It gives errors because it contains dates in the index name.

I just tried this and it works fine.
if you are getting an error, providing that and the full command you called would be useful.

Hi,

Here is the full command I used:

curl -XPUT http://localhost:9200/logstash-2015.05.19 -d '
{
  "mappings": {
    "log": {
      "properties": {
        "geo": {
          "properties": {
            "coordinates": {
              "type": "geo_point"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
';

Here is the result I received from Elasticsearch:

{"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"mapper_parsing_exception","reason":"Root mapping definition has unsupported parameters: [“store” : true]"}],"type":"mapper_parsing_exception","reason":"Failed to parse mapping [“date”]: Root mapping definition has unsupported parameters: [“store” : true]","caused_by":{"type":"mapper_parsing_exception","reason":"Root mapping definition has unsupported parameters: [“store” : true]"}},"status":400}

I am using ES version:
Version: 2.3.5, Build: 90f439f/2016-07-27T10:36:52Z, JVM: 1.8.0_45

Thanks

I just did the same thing, same ES version, but I got an ok.

{"acknowledged":true}
