Install Elasticsearch and its head plugin:

wget https://download.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-1.3.6.deb
sudo dpkg -i elasticsearch-1.3.6.deb
sudo update-rc.d elasticsearch defaults 95 10
cd /usr/share/elasticsearch/
sudo bin/plugin -install mobz/elasticsearch-head

In our project, the elasticsearch settings are defined in application.conf. Accordingly, two values need to be specified in Elasticsearch's overall setup explicitly:

First, in elasticsearch.yml (usually around line 32), set:

cluster.name: oerworldmaps

(You will find elasticsearch.yml at /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml on Ubuntu.) Start Elasticsearch by

sudo service elasticsearch start

Second, browse the elasticsearch head plugin by http://localhost:9200/_plugin/head/ --> tab "Indices" --> create a "New Index": "oerworldmap".

Download sbt, then

$ sbt run
