How do I setup SearchKick/ElasticSearch on the NEW Nitrous.io IDE?
Did the tutorial yesterday and ran into the same issue(was using cloud9 IDE). I noticed I was getting that error because elastic search wasn't running. I uninstalled it using the command
sudo apt-get --purge autoremove elasticsearch
then made a fresh install.
wget https://download.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-1.7.0.debsudo dpkg -i elasticsearch-1.7.0.deb#enable on bootupsudo update-rc.d elasticsearch defaults 95 10### Start ElasticSearch sudo /etc/init.d/elasticsearch start### Make sure service is runningcurl http://localhost:9200### Should return something like this:# {# "status" : 200,# "name" : "Storm",# "version" : {# "number" : "1.3.1",# "build_hash" : "2de6dc5268c32fb49b205233c138d93aaf772015",# "build_timestamp" : "2014-07-28T14:45:15Z",# "build_snapshot" : false,# "lucene_version" : "4.9"# },# "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"#}
Searchkick worked after this. You should have java installed though before installing elastic search. Hope this helps you
