Cannot start river mongodb. Current status is IMPORT_FAILED

[Repox]

After importing 12,754 documents I've suddenly recieved a load of these messages and importing stops:

[134]: index [members], type [member], id [526f9808edf2886a0a8b463a], message [MapperParsingException[object mapping for [member] tried to parse as object, but got EOF, has a concrete value been provided to it?]]
[135]: index [members], type [member], id [526f9808edf2886a0a8b463b], message [MapperParsingException[object mapping for [member] tried to parse as object, but got EOF, has a concrete value been provided to it?]]
[136]: index [members], type [member], id [526f9808edf2886a0a8b463c], message [MapperParsingException[object mapping for [member] tried to parse as object, but got EOF, has a concrete value been provided to it?]]
[137]: index [members], type [member], id [526f9808edf2886a0a8b463d], message [MapperParsingException[object mapping for [member] tried to parse as object, but got EOF, has a concrete value been provided to it?]]

Thinking that a restart of ES might work, I get this in the log:

[ERROR][org.elasticsearch.river.mongodb.MongoDBRiver] Cannot start river mongodb. Current status is IMPORT_FAILED

How can I fix this?

You can delete the status.

 curl -XDELETE 'http://localhost:9200/_river/mongodb/_riverstatus'

In my case I went the "brute farce" way in deleting the status, the meta and the index I rivered into.

 curl -XDELETE 'http://localhost:9200/_river/mongodb/_meta'
 curl -XDELETE 'http://localhost:9200/<index>/<type>'

curl -XPUT 'http://localhost:9200/_river/mongodb/_meta' -d '{
.....
}'

And restart elastic.

I am having the issue where the INITIAL_IMPORT_FAILED. Below is a portion of my log. I have deleted the meta and reinstated after stopping and starting Elasticsearch.

Here is the -XPUT that I am using.

curl -XPUT "localhost:9200/_river/river-mongodb/_meta" -d '{ "type": "mongodb", "mongodb": { "servers": [ { "host": "server1", "port": "27017" }, { "host": "_server2", "port": "27017" }, { "host": "_server3*", "port": "27017" } ], "options": { "secondary_read_preference" : true, "include_collection": "Automation", "skip_initial_import" : "true" }, "credentials": [ { "db": "admin", "user": "admin", "password": "pswd" } ], "db": "Check", "collection": "Automation", "gridfs": false }, "index": { "name": "datacheck_index", "type": "Document" } }'
