Bettermap: a.fields is undefined

[najamansari]

Hello!

I set up Logstash to parse the client IPs from an Nginx logfile and convert them into a longlat array. When I use that field in a Bettermap module in Kibana, I get the following error in the browser console:

Empty string passed to getElementById(). app.js:4
"Error: a.fields is undefined

My Logstash configuration is:

filter {
  grok {
    match => {
      message => "%{IPORHOST:clientip} \[%{HTTPDATE:timestamp}\] \"%{WORD:verb} %{URIPATHPARAM:request} HTTP/%{NUMBER:httpversion}\" %{NUMBER:response:int} (?:%{NUMBER:bytes:int}|-) (?:\"(?:%{URI:referrer}|-)\"|%{QS:referrer}) %{QS:agent} %{BASE10NUM:request_duration:float}"
    }
  }
  date {
    locale => "en"
    match => [ "timestamp" , "dd/MMM/YYYY:HH:mm:ss Z" ]
  }
  mutate {
    remove_field => [ "timestamp" ]
  }
  geoip {
    source => "clientip"
    target => "geoip"
    add_field => [ "[geoip][coordinates]", "%{[geoip][longitude]}" ]
    add_field => [ "[geoip][coordinates]", "%{[geoip][latitude]}"  ]
  }
  mutate {
    convert => [ "coordinates", "float" ]
  }
}

I'm not sure if this is a bug or a a configurational error. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Noted! I'll review my Kibana dashboard and join you guys on Freenode if I still can't nail it.

Thanks and regards,
