I installed Elasticsearch on Linux Mint without any trouble.

Everything according this tutorial Easy install for elasticsearch on Ubuntu 14.04.

All installation steps went well. However, when I want to run easy check:

curl http://localhost:9200

I got:

nazar@lelyak-desktop:~$ curl -X GET 'http://localhost:9200'
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 9200: Connection refused

PC reboot didn't help.

How to solve this issue?

Follow official documentation here instead of that linked gist - it refers to very old ES version. Setup recent deb repository with:

echo "deb https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/6.x/apt stable main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elastic-6.x.list

and install via apt.

Go to the terminal and execute:

sudo service elasticsearch start
