Hi Christian - I generally run elasticsearch with the `-d` option so that it runs as a daemon. This allows me to close the terminal and shut down the machine on which ES is running and later resume without any additional steps. Other than that there really are no special steps that need to be taken to shut down Arches. The error that you got seems to be an issue with virtualenv. Once you pip install arches, arches and its Python dependencies (including Django) should be installed in your virtualenv and be available regardless of how you stop arches or shutdown your server. So, I'm not sure what went wrong to cause the error you saw, and I'm sorry it resulted in you having to reinstall everything. Hopefully it doesn't happen again, but I would take a snapshot of my VM before shutting down, just in case it does.
Regarding your map issue, getting a mapbox API key and adding it to your system settings should resolve that issue.
