Play 2.3.4 unable to create new project [TimeOut Exception]

I'm calling the activator to create a new project with the play-java template

activator new "projectName"
3

It always fail and I get the following error:

akka.pattern.AskTimeoutException: Ask timed out on [Actor[akka://default/user/te
mplate-cache#1973480390]] after [10000 ms]

    at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)

I tried to increase the timeout:

activator -Dactivator.timeout=30s

but I get the exception in less than a second regardless.

By default Activator has a 10 second timeout to fetch the latest templates and check for a new version. On slow internet connections it might be necessary to increate that timeout.

For example 

activator -Dactivator.timeout=30s new "project name"

Or you can put that parameter into your ~/.activator/activatorconfig.txt file.
