Play Framework 2.3.x how to run the sample applications?

I have Play 2.3.7 installed, and I have the activator command working with other play apps I have created locally.

However, when I try to clone the Play Framework from github and run one of the 2.3.x sample applications , the activator command fails with a Null Pointer Exception. Similarly, if I try to import the project into IntelliJ and build from the .sbt file, I get the same error:

IntelliJ import error

Is there something I need to change in the build.sbt file to get it to load properly? I'm guessing that it is something very simple that I am overlooking.

TL;DR: How do I run a Play 2.3.x sample application when cloned from github?

Specify the exact play version that you have in plugins.sbt

From 

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.play" % "sbt-plugin" % System.getProperty("play.version"))

To(Assuming you are using play 2.3.1)

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.play" % "sbt-plugin" % "2.3.1")

Then activator clean then run again.
