Github user pferrel commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/incubator-predictionio-template-java-ecom-recommender/pull/6 Also the build.sbt locks people into the latest versions of Spark, etc. So this template will no longer work with services installed with pio-0.11.0 including the Scala version. Existing users should be warned about this--do not upgrade pio unless you are willing to upgrade scala, and other services. In the case of ES it means wiping the meta store, which in turn means they must `pio export` before upgrading and `pio import` into new apps to get metadata re-created in ES5.
