Elasticsearch, Kibana : mapper [hits] cannot be changed from type [long] to [integer]

Every time I upgrade my ELK stack, it breaks. This time, it was the Kibana index with this obscurous errors :
[DEBUG][o.e.a.a.i.m.p.TransportPutMappingAction] [logs] failed to put mappings on indices [[[.kibana]]], type [timelion-sheet] java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: mapper [hits] cannot be changed from type [long] to [integer][DEBUG][o.e.a.a.i.m.p.TransportPutMappingAction] [DEBUG][o.e.a.a.i.m.p.TransportPutMappingAction] [logs] failed to put mappings on indices [[[.kibana]]], type [timelion-sheet] java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: mapper [version] cannot be changed from type [long] to [integer]
Here is how to fix it. You will have to re-create an index with the correct mapping, and then reindex it.
First, export your Kibana index mapping and settings :
curl localhost:9200/.kibana/_settings?pretty curl localhost:9200/.kibana/_mapping?pretty
Then, Create and index template with your settings and mapping (don't forget to change the type of the offending fields) :
curl -XPUT "http://localhost:9200/_template/kibana" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
{
"template":".kibana-5.6",
"settings":{
"number_of_shards":1
},
"mappings":{

"type":"long"
},
"accessDate":{
"type":"date",
"format":"strict_date_optional_time||epoch_millis"

"uiStateJSON":{

}
}
'
Then, reindex (copy) the values of your old kibana index to the new one :
curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9200/_reindex" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
{
"source": {
"index": ".kibana"
},
"dest": {
"index": ".kibana-5.6"
}
}'
And finally, change your kibana index in /etc/kibana/kibana.yml :
kibana.index: ".kibana-5.6"
