Please provide any additional information below.
This an attempted reinstall. Previous install, a few days ago, worked. Now
trying to install alongside erlang instead of separately like last time. I
see this has been a previously fixed issue. Maybe it's just a server glitch?
bullitt46. Its probably do to the asn1 app not being published for your
platform. The easiest way to solve that problem is to do the publish
yourself. I would be more then happy to walk you through that if you would
like.
That would be fine, but as I said, this is a reinstall. I have previously
installed faxien, sinan, and portius on this computer (just a few days ago).
If I self-publish, would I do that via portius?
No via faxien actually. do you have erlang installed in the regular way?
Yes, I do. I initially installed erlang in /usr/local/lib/erlang, then
installed erlware in its own directory under /usr/local/erlware. On my
servers at my office, I quickly discovered the advantages of having erlware
and erlang installed in the same directory, so I wanted to do that on my
home servers, but ran into this problem with the re-install. I still have
the /usr/local/erlware (renamed erlware.notused), so all the faxien, sinan,
portius, and associated files are still available for me locally; so maybe
I can just use that directory as a repository and install from there? How
would I do that?
I just noticed that running "faxien ir sinan" is trying to install
sinan-0.16.2.4 and retrieve asn1-1.6.12, whereas in my "erlware.notused"
directory, I have sinan-0.17.1.1 and asn1-1.6.14. I suspect I have a
disconnect between versions.
Resolved: I uninstalled the Ubuntu-packaged version of erlang and
reinstalled R14A from source. Now I can retrieve all the erlware packages
correctly. My apologies for creating a formal issue over what turned out to
be a version conflict.
Ah, That would do it, though faxien could have pulled R14 for you. In any
case, its no problem at all. Always happy to help.
