Hello, When I run ./bin/elasticsearch like it says in the [http://logstash.net/docs/1.4.2/tutorials/getting-started-with-logstash](http://logstash.net/docs/1.4.2/tutorials/getting-started-with-logstash) tutorial I get the following error? failed to connect to master [[Annie Ghazikhanian] [127.0.0.1:9300]], retrying... Caused by: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: /127.0.0.1:9300 Would you happen to know how I can fix this error? I believe I may be accidentally connecting to someone else's cluster.

It's connecting to itself, 127.0.0.1 is a local address, it's unlikely it's connecting to another cluster unless you already have ES installed and r9unning on the node. It'd help if you gist/pastebin/etc the entire log.
