Not really familiar with elastic search so I really have no idea what this error would indicate that I've done wrong

Elastic Search 6.2.4
Enhanced Search 1.1.8

 

[Jake B.]

Just bumping this to hopefully get this resolved, stuck with the default XenForo MySQL search currently, and would prefer not to be

@Chris D any suggestions?

Did you upgrade to Elastic Search 6.2.4 from ES 5.x? If so, go to ACP -> ES and Optimize the index and recreate it afterwards.

 

[Jake B.]

Nope, was a new ElasticSearch install, I did have to enable an option though and then completely empty the existing index before rebuilding it which (so far) seems to have resolved the issue, but it's only about 1/3 of the way through the rebuild, so I should know for sure in a few hours

This is ElasticSearch 6.x fun. I'ld recommend removing ElasticSearch 6.x and just using ElasticSearch 5.x with XF 1.x.

XF1 doesn't push type-hints into ElasticSearch, meaning ElasticSearch will pick stuff which looks right on the first time data is sent no matter how silly it is. If this was wrong; previously with ElasticSearch 5.x it would just adjust, but with ElasticSearch 6.x you can't change a type mapping with existing data. So it explodes.

You might get lucky by blowing away the entire index and starting again.
